If I were allowed to only recommend one book for anyone to read, I would hands down always pick Wonder by R.J. Palacio. It was my favorite book of 2012 and still remains one of my top favorites today. Seriously, if you haven’t read it, go now…read it! Everyone should take the time and read Wonder…everyone. The message is clear and the message should be spread far and wide – Choose Kindness. Be Kind. Encourage Kindness.

So I was equally delighted this year when Palacio released Auggie & Me: Three Wonder Stories. My favorite story got to keep going, I was able to get closure on some of the side characters I came to know from Wonder. I was able to see kindness unfold yet again. I again had hope for kindness to spread.

I cannot spoil these stories for you. I can only hope that you will grow to love these stories just as much as I have. And remember: Choose Kindness. Spread Kindness. Be Kind.[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
