Adapted from the best selling U.S. set novel, young Auggie Pullman has been born with facial differences. Embarrassed about his appearance, and fanatical about science, he wears an astronaut’s helmet.

Over the course of a remarkable year, he and the other students learn about compassion, empathy and understanding, with Auggie becoming an unlikely hero. We discuss the themes and talking points in this inspiring family film, including the importance of learning to see the world through other people’s eyes and to always strive to choose kindness.
