In Wonder, a novel by R.J.

A lot of his troubles come from being bullied by another student named Julian. The story is told from the viewpoint of several people, and we get a pretty wide view of Auggie's world and the people around him.
Wonder is set in New York City in the modern day (the book was published in 2012). A good deal of the book takes place at Auggie's new school, Beecher Prep, as well as his family's townhouse. Both are in the Upper Manhattan area of New York City.
