This Read Aloud Reflection is the 3rd in a series of posts about the book Wonder.
Halloween is a positive thing for Auggie because everyone wears a mask. This way, nobody can judge you by the way you look. The people who see you can get to know you first. But when Auggie starts to put on his costume, he suddenly feels like he doesn’t want to wear it anymore. I think that ever since Summer told him that she thinks her costume is too dorky, Auggie has been thinking about the bad things about his costume. His costume still smells like paint, it is hard to put on, and his mom had to fix the costume into looking like Boba Fett since there weren’t any in the store. 🙁
