Compare And Contrast Auggie And Quarta

Just imagine living a life where people are afraid to look at you. Where people just sit and stare and give you a creepy face saying you’re a monster. In the stories, “Wonder,” written by RJ Palacio, and “The Girl who was Born with only Two Arms and Two legs,” by Stuart Baum, the protagonists are August Pullman, also known as Auggie and Quarta.

On the other hand, it was just like when Quarta rescued Kako. All she really did was pull him to safety, but even when she just pulled him out, she still got teased. This seems very unfair by people just judging a book by its
