August "Auggie" Pullman is a 10-year-old boy living in Brooklyn with his parents, Isabel and Nate, older sister, Via, and their dog, Daisy. Auggie was born with a rare medical facial deformity, mandibulofacial dysostosis, and has been homeschooled by Isabel, but as he approaches fifth grade, she and Nate enroll him at Beecher Prep, a private middle school. When the school year begins, Auggie is ostracized, but he soon forms a close friendship with a classmate, Jack Will.
