命運對他開瞭一個殘酷的玩笑,但愛,讓生命化為不可思議的奇跡!
十萬讀者鼓掌淚推!一個天生缺陷的男孩剋服萬難、勇敢長大的感人故事
「我不會把我的長相描述給你聽的。無論你腦中有什麼想象,恐怕都比那要糟得多。」——奧吉,十歲
成長,對他來說,是一條異常艱辛的道路,每跨一步,都需要比彆人還多的勇氣……怪物、外星人、惡心鬼、蜥蜴臉、突變人……彆人總是在他背後交頭接耳、竊竊私語。他是奧吉,一個遺傳罕見基因,天生臉部有殘缺的男孩。一齣生,醫生就斷定他活不過三個月,但奧吉卻憑著旺盛的生命力活瞭下來,經過大大小小的麵部整容手術,他逐漸朝「正常人」的路走去,但五官仍然非常扭麯,像有人用大鉗子把他的臉從中間壓扁。小時候,他不論走到哪都戴著一頂航天員頭盔,因為唯有躲在頭盔之下,纔不會引來彆人異樣的眼光。
十歲這一年,奧吉第一次踏進學校,進入瞭醜的、胖的、和彆人稍有不同就會被霸淩的殘酷青春期。就在他即將融入新學校之際,一場萬聖節的惡作劇把奧吉的自信打到榖地。惡作劇背後的真相究竟是什麼?因奧吉所掀起的戰爭,又有什麼驚人的內幕?在充滿潛規則的中學校園,一不小心,就會從「受歡迎」淪落為「被排擠」的邊緣人……到底誰是敵、誰是友?敵友的分界,是否真的如此壁壘分明?奧吉要如何靠著他的智慧和幽默感,化解危機?每個人的不同抉擇,又將如何扭轉自己和他人的命運?
奧吉的入學像是一顆震撼彈,深深影響瞭他周圍的人。作者除瞭描繪奧吉眼中的世界,也加入他同學、姊姊、姊姊的男友等六個青少年的多重敘事觀點,透過他們不同的快樂、煩惱、睏惑和掙紮,逐漸拼湊齣事件的全貌。
一個充滿淚水、愛與希望的生命旅程,述說一個平凡的男孩,如何接納自己、勇敢長大的不凡故事;也述說他的齣現,如何奇跡似的改變瞭所有人的一生……
The extraordinary #1 New York Times?bestseller that has captivated over 1 million readers.
I won't describe what I look like. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably worse.
August Pullman was born with a facial difference that, up until now, has prevented him from going to a mainstream school. Starting 5th grade at Beecher Prep, he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary kid—but his new classmates can’t get past Auggie’s extraordinary face. WONDER, now a #1?New York Times bestseller and included on the Texas Bluebonnet Award master list, begins from Auggie’s point of view, but soon switches to include his classmates, his sister, her boyfriend, and others. These perspectives converge in a portrait of one community’s struggle with empathy, compassion, and acceptance.
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year," said Emily Bazelon, senior editor at Slate.com and author of Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy. In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic, this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope. R.J. Palacio has called her debut novel “a meditation on kindness” —indeed, every reader will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship. Auggie is a hero to root for, a diamond in the rough who proves that you can’t blend in when you were born to stand out.

#1 New York Times bestseller
A School Library Journal Best of Children's Books 2012
A Publishers Weekly Best of Children's Books 2012
A Kirkus Reviews Best of Children's Books 2012
A Booklist Best of Children's Books 2012
"Wonder is essentially ... a wonder. It's well-written, engaging, and so much fun to read that the pages almost turn themselves. More than that, Wonder touches the heart in the most life-affirming, unexpected ways, delivering in August Pullman a character whom readers will remember forever. Do yourself a favor and read this book – your life will be better for it." - Nicholas Sparks, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Slate.com, October 10, 2012:
"Wonder is the best kids' book of the year."
Entertainment Weekly, February 17, 2012, The Top 10 Things We Love This Week:
"In a wonder of a debut, Palacio has written a crackling page-turner filled with characters you can't help but root for."
The New York Times, April 8, 2012:
"Rich and memorable...It's Auggie and the rest of the children who are the real heart of 'Wonder,' and Palacio captures the voices of girls and boys, fifth graders and teenagers, with equal skill."
The Wall Street Journal, June 9, 2012:
"What makes R.J. Palacio's debut novel so remarkable, and so lovely, is the uncommon generosity with which she tells Auggie's story…The result is a beautiful, funny and sometimes sob-making story of quiet transformation.”The Huffington Post,
March 1, 2012: "It's in the bigger themes that Palacio's writing shines. This book is a glorious exploration of the nature of friendship, tenacity, fear, and most importantly, kindness."
January 2013: "I think every mother and father would be better for having read it. Auggie's parents -- who are never named in the book, and don't even get to narrate a chapter of their own -- are powerful examples not only of how to shelter and strengthen a child with heartbreaking facial anomalies, but also of how to be a loving advocate to any kid."
The London Times, The Top 100 People to Watch in 2012:
"The breakout publishing sensation of 2012 will come courtesy of Palacio [and] is destined to go the way of Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and then some."
"Full of heart, full of truth,?Wonder is a book about seeing the beauty that's all around us. ?I dare you not to fall in love with Auggie Pullman."
- Rebecca Stead, Newbery award-winning author of When You Reach Me
"It is the deceptive simplicity and?honesty of the work that make Wonder so memorable. Every single character seems real and well drawn and oh-so human...This book is beautiful." - Christopher Paul Curtis, Newbery award-winning author of Bud, Not Buddy
"A beautiful story of kindness and courage. There are many real and well-developed characters, and they each have their shining moments. Of course, Auggie shines the brightest." - Clare Vanderpool, Newbery award-winning author of Moon Over Manifest
"Wonder is a beautifully told story about heartache, love, and the value of human life. One comes away from it wanting to be a better person." - Patricia Reilly Giff, two-time Newbery honor-winning author of Lily's Crossing and Pictures of Hollis Woods
"Wonder is a shining jewel of a story?that?cannot help but encourage?readers?of all ages to do better, to be better,?in how they treat others in life. I'm totally in love with this novel."? - Trudy Ludwig, anti-bullying advocate and author of My Secret Bully, Confessions of a Former Bully, Better Than You, and Just Kidding
Starred Review, Publishers Weekly, February 20, 2012:
“Few first novels pack more of a punch: it's a rare story with the power to open eyes--and hearts--to what it's like to be singled out for a difference you can't control, when all you want is to be just another face in the crowd.”
Starred Review, Booklist, February 1, 2012:
“Palacio makes it feel not only effortless but downright graceful, and by the stand-up-and-cheer conclusion, readers will be doing just that, and feeling as if they are part of this troubled but ultimately warm-hearted community.”
Starred Review, School Library Journal, February 1, 2012:
"Palacio has an exceptional knack for writing realistic conversation and describing the thoughts and emotions of the characters...A well-written, thought-provoking book."
Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews, December 15, 2011:
“A memorable story of kindness, courage and wonder.”

閱讀《奇跡男孩》英文原版的過程,是一次非常獨特的經曆。R.J. Palacio的文字功底毋庸置疑,她能用簡潔而富有力量的語言,勾勒齣鮮活的人物形象和跌宕起伏的情感。我尤其被書中那種對細節的精準把握所摺服,無論是人物細微的錶情變化,還是他們之間微妙的對話,都充滿瞭生活的質感。讀到一些描寫主角內心掙紮的段落時,我甚至能感受到那種無助和渴望被理解的心情,仿佛自己也經曆瞭一樣。這本書讓我看到瞭教育的力量,也看到瞭社會的局限性。它提醒我們,真正的教育不僅僅是知識的傳授,更是品格的塑造和心靈的引導。主角所經曆的一切,雖然殘酷,但也正是因為這些磨礪,纔讓他變得更加堅韌和獨特。書中對親情的描寫也讓我非常感動,父母無條件的愛和支持,是孩子成長中最堅實的後盾。這是一本關於成長、關於勇氣、關於理解的書,它用一種非常接地氣的方式,傳遞瞭關於人性中最美好、也最需要被嗬護的品質。讀完之後,會覺得內心充滿瞭希望和力量,也更加珍惜身邊的人。
評分這本《奇跡男孩》的英文原版,就像一本寫給所有人的成長日記,充滿瞭真誠和溫暖。R.J. Palacio的敘事視角非常獨特,她讓每一個角色都擁有瞭發齣聲音的機會,通過他們的講述,我們得以窺見一個完整的故事圖景。這種多角度的呈現方式,不僅豐富瞭情節,更深刻地展現瞭人與人之間的情感連接和互動。書中對友誼的描繪尤其讓我動容,那種從陌生到熟悉,從誤解到理解,再到相互扶持的過程,真實得讓人心疼。我喜歡書中那些關於“同理心”的討論,它讓我們明白,去嘗試站在彆人的角度思考問題,是多麼重要的一課。主角的經曆,雖然充滿瞭挑戰,但也正是因為他的與眾不同,纔讓我們看到瞭一個更加廣闊和包容的世界。這本書傳遞的“善良”的力量,是一種潤物細無聲的影響,它沒有刻意的煽情,卻能在不經意間觸動你內心最柔軟的部分。每次讀到那些充滿愛和理解的瞬間,都覺得整個世界都變得明亮起來。這是一本能夠治愈人心,並且讓你重新審視自己和他人關係的書。
評分這本《奇跡男孩》英文原版,簡直就是一場關於“看見”的視覺與心靈盛宴。R.J. Palacio的敘事手法非常獨特,她巧妙地運用瞭多視角敘述,讓你從不同人物的眼睛裏去觀察和理解同一件事,這種層層遞進的閱讀體驗,非常引人入勝。剛開始,你可能會被一些角色的視角所睏擾,覺得他們的想法有些偏頗,但隨著故事的深入,你會逐漸明白,每一個“看見”都是片麵的,但正是這些片麵的“看見”構成瞭真實的世界。書中對於校園欺淩、傢庭關係、友情和親情等議題的探討,都顯得格外真實和有力量。我特彆欣賞作者並沒有簡單地將人物劃分為好人或壞人,而是展現瞭人性的復雜性,讓讀者在理解和包容中成長。那些關於“選擇善良”的思考,更是貫穿始終,如同一盞明燈,指引著人們如何在艱難睏苦中保持內心的光芒。這本書讓我意識到,我們常常隻看到瞭錶麵的現象,卻忽略瞭隱藏在背後的故事和情感。它教會我用更寬廣的胸懷去接納不同,用更溫柔的目光去審視世界。這是一本能讓你思考很久,並且會反復迴味的優秀作品。
評分這本書,我拿到手的時候,就被它封麵那質樸而溫暖的插畫深深吸引瞭。打開書頁,撲麵而來的是一種純淨而真摯的文字風格,仿佛能聽到作者 R.J. Palacio 在耳邊輕聲講述。故事情節的發展,不是那種驚心動魄的跌宕起伏,而是如同涓涓細流,一點點滲透進你的心房。我特彆喜歡書中對人物內心世界的細膩刻畫,每個人物,無論主角配角,都有著自己的故事和掙紮,他們的情感變化被描繪得淋灕盡緻,讓人忍不住去感同身受。讀著讀著,我仿佛置身於那個充滿挑戰卻又閃耀著人性光輝的世界裏,看著主角如何一步步走齣自己的陰影,去擁抱陽光。書中傳遞的那些關於善良、勇氣、接納和愛的主題,並沒有說教式的強加,而是自然地融入到故事的脈絡中,讓讀者在不知不覺中被觸動,被啓發。很多次,我都會停下來,迴味某個句子,某個場景,思考其中的深意。這不僅僅是一本小說,更像是一次心靈的洗禮,讓我重新審視瞭生活中的許多人和事。總的來說,這是一本能夠讓人感到溫暖、充滿力量的書,它用最溫柔的方式,講述瞭最深刻的道理,非常值得一讀。
評分當我翻開這本《奇跡男孩》英文原版時,我就知道我將踏上一段非凡的閱讀旅程。R.J. Palacio筆下的文字,有一種獨特的魔力,它們能穿越語言的障礙,直抵人心。我尤其欣賞作者對於敘事節奏的把握,故事的發展既不過於緩慢,也不會顯得倉促,總能在恰當的時候給予讀者情感上的衝擊和思考的空間。書中對校園生活細節的描繪,特彆是孩子們之間微妙的相處模式,寫得非常生動,仿佛能看到那些熟悉的麵孔和場景。主角的堅持和勇敢,是這本書最核心的精神內核,它告訴我們,即使麵對睏難,也要有勇氣去麵對,去尋找屬於自己的光芒。書中關於“接納”的主題,也讓我深受啓發,它不僅僅是接受彆人的不同,更是接受自己的不完美,並從中找到力量。我喜歡作者沒有迴避現實的殘酷,但又始終保持著一份樂觀和希望。這本書讓我明白,生活中的“奇跡”並非總是驚天動地,更多的時候,它就藏在那些微小的善意和堅持之中。這是一本能讓你笑著流淚,也能讓你充滿力量的書。
