Chapter Summary: The Adventures Of Auggie By Auggen

Decent Essays
My novel is about a boy named Auggie, a tough, sweet, 10-year-old boy, who was born with distorted facial features a "craniofacial difference" caused by an anomaly in his DNA.
Auggie is a homeschooled fifth-grader He has a medical condition, often equated with Treacher Collins syndrome, that has caused him to have many surgeries. Due to this, Auggie has been homeschooled by his mother; however, wanting him to experience a larger world, his parents enroll him into a Middle School for the start of fifth grade. Auggie also has a sister who is older then him.

if I had to compare tow people in my book it would be Auggie and his parents at first he didn't want to go to school and his dad agreed with him but then the mom kept saying it would be fine
