August Pullman, di Auggie, conna�t presque toutes les joies d'un gar�on de son �ge. � dix ans, il fait du v�lo, joue � la DS et adore Halloween. Parce que c'est � peu pr�s le seul jour de l'ann�e o� il se sent normal. Atteint d'une terrible malformation faciale depuis la naissance, il se cache alors sous un gros casque de cosmonaute et oublie, pendant une soir�e, qu'il fait peur � tout le monde le reste du temps.
Prot�g� autant que possible par sa famille aimante, scolaris� � domicile, Auggie voit soudain son petit cocon �clater : ses parents ont d�cid� qu'il �tait temps pour lui d'int�grer le coll�ge pour de vrai. Mais malgr� son humour d�capant, Auggie ne laisse personne indiff�rent : il d�range et met mal � l'aise.
Le monde des enfants et des adultes ordinaires r�ussira-t-il � faire une place � ce gar�on � la fois si semblable aux autres et si diff�rent ?

Une histoire �mouvante et r�aliste qui am�ne � s'interroger sur la diff�rence et rappelle combien Saint-Exup�ry avait raison : " On ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur. "
