Produktbeschreibung

The perfect companion to Wonder, the #1 New York Times bestseller! Choose Kind with 365 Days Of Wonder.

In Wonder, readers were introduced to memorable English teacher Mr. Browne and his love of precepts. Join Mr. Browne, Auggie, Julian, Summer and Jack in this collection of essays, quotes and words of wisdom.

With a precept for each day of the year-drawn from popular songs to children's books to inscriptions on Egyptian tombstones to fortune cookies!

Packed with words of wisdom from such noteworthy people as Anne Frank, Martin Luther King Jr., Confucius, Goethe, Sappho-and over 100 readers of Wonder who sent R. J. Palacio their own precepts-this book is the perfect celebration of everyday wonder and hope!

Praise for 356 Days Of Wonder:

Palacio has an uncanny grasp of the minds and hearts of 8- to 12-year-olds, and the people who used to be them - New York Times

I love this beautiful little book so much that I want to carry it aroundwith me every day . . . I really can't say enough good things about it! - Wondrous Reads
