Students will need a copy of each book (or an audiobook) and access to the movie. Students can read the book on their own, listen to an audiobook, or parents can read the book to their child. 

Parents should know that this book is about 10-year-old August Pullman, who has a genetic facial difference. When he enters school for the first time, he has to cope with a lot of reactions to his appearance, as well as typical middle school drama. There are upsetting situations - some kids use hateful language and some suggest August is mentally deficient. In addition, the family faces hardships such as the death of a beloved pet. A high school couple kisses a few times and there are a few 7th-grade kids observed smoking - whether it is cigarettes or pot is not made clear. 

In the end, goodness wins and the story is an uplifting one. There are also plenty of positive role models who make good choices. 

Our discussion will focus on the lessons we can learn from the positive characters as well as the uplifting messages in the book, but if you have a particularly sensitive child, this story might not be the right choice.
