Yoto Says: If your family loved Wonder, this story takes things even deeper. Meet Grandmère, who shares what it meant to be brave—and kind—when it mattered most. Here is a moving tale about standing up, speaking out, and holding onto hope, even in the hardest times. Inspired by Wonder, her blockbuster phenomenon, R. J. Palacio presents an unforgettable story of the power of kindness and unrelenting courage in a time of war. In R. J. Palacio's bestselling collection of stories, Auggie & Me, which expands on characters in Wonder, readers were introduced to Julian's grandmother, Grandmère. Palacio makes her graphic novel debut with Grandmère's story as a young Jewish girl hidden away by a family in Nazi-occupied France during World War II. Her harrowing experience vividly demonstrates the power of kindness to change hearts, build bridges, and even save lives. Anyone who was moved by the book Wonder or the blockbuster movie adaptation and its message will be captivated by White Bird. This full-cast audio adaptation of White Bird transforms the graphic novel into a truly original audio performance.
