Local Wonders by Ted Kooser

Ted Kooser describes with exquisite detail and humor the place he calls home in the rolling hills of southeastern Nebraska known as the Bohemian Alps. Nothing is to big or too small for his attention.  Memories of his grandmother’s cooking are juxtaposed with reflections about the old-fashioned outhouse on his property.  In the end, what makes life meaningful for Kooser are the ways in which his neighbors care for one another and how an afternoon walking with an old dog, or baking a pie, or decorating the house for Christmas can summon memories of his Iowa childhood.

WONDER by R. J. Palacio

August (Auggie) Pullman was born with a facial difference that prevented him from going to a mainstream school—until now.  He’s about to enter fifth grade at Beecher Prep, and if you’ve ever been the new kid, then you know how hard that can be.  The thing is Auggie’s just an ordinary kid, with an extraordinary face.  But can he convince his new classmates that he’s just like them, despite his appearances?
