When the movie Wonder was being released I wanted to take the kids. This is the exact kind of movie that my kids would like. However, they were not interested, that is until Eva had an assignment at school to read the book. Now, Wonder is all over our home. Eva has even made a schedule for everyone in the house to read the book. Now that the movie is available in our home we are also going to watch it as well.

Wonder, the #1 New York Times bestselling book by R.J. Palacio, and the recent hit movie, and DVD release starring Julia Roberts has inspired millions. Random House Children’s Books looks to continue to use the Wonder property to encourage kids, families, and educators nationwide to #ChooseKind in 2018 with an opt-in pledge, and a motivating consumer products line. There is also an app with daily messages of inspiration. The app is free and on iOS. You can learn more about The Year of Wonder below. Continue reading In this Year of Wonder We Will #ChooseKind.
