You guys!!! If you've read the book WONDER, I highly recommend the book UGLY. They are very similar. A man wrote an incredible autobiography, or as he calls it a "story of his story," from the time he was born until his later teens. When he was born, he had a tumor on his face and messed up legs. He went through many surgeries, like Auggie, and ended up with a disfigured face. It describes his struggles after surgery, while making friends, and trying many sports. In the end, he talks about how it's okay to be different, because everybody has their differences, and how we're all uglier than we think. It's an awesome book, you should definitely read it!!! 👍😃
