He has a rare medical facial deformity , which he refers to as `` mandibulofacial dysostosis . '' Due to numerous surgeries ( 27 ) , Auggie had been home - schooled by his parents Isabel and Nate , but as Auggie is approaching middle school age , Isabel and Nate decide to send him to Beecher Prep , a mainstream private school . Fifth grade is tough for Auggie who is ostracized by nearly all the student body . He is bullied by being called a freak and rumors were spread that kids will get the `` plague '' if they touch him . He does befriend a boy named Jack Will . Halloween is Auggie 's favorite holiday . He has to wear an old `` Ghostface '' mask and costume because his dog , Daisy , threw up on his `` Boba Fett '' costume . He walks around school unrecognized and is not tormented while incognito . As he walks through the door to his homeroom , he overhears his friend Jack telling Julian Albans that he was `` only pretending to be friends with Auggie . '' Feeling betrayed , Auggie leaves school and wants to stay home during trick - or - treating . His older sister Olivia , nicknamed `` Via , '' tells him she is still his friend and talks him out of it . Auggie later confides the incident to a new friend , named Summer , but swears her to secrecy . When Jack notices that Auggie has become quiet and distant he asks Summer why , but she only gives him the clue `` Ghost Face '' . Jack is shocked when it dawns on him that it was Auggie wearing the Ghost Face costume , and thus had overheard everything he said to Julian . When Julian calls Auggie a `` freak , '' Jack angrily punches him in the face and a fight ensues between the two , which is soon broken up by their homeroom teacher Mr. Browne . Jack is suspended for two days for his actions . He apologizes to Auggie and the two friends reconcile . They even team up for a winning science project . During the middle of the school year , Auggie is constantly bullied by Julian and his friends Amos , Miles , and Henry . They leave hurtful and threatening notes on his desk and tape their class picture on his locker with Auggie photoshopped out . Mr. Tushman confronts Julian and his parents . Julian 's mother assures the principal that her boy is no bully . She even proclaims that she had Auggie edited out of the picture because she did n't want people to only care about Auggie and his family more than Julian . She also threatens to pull their funding from the school . Tushman shows all of his evidence and suspends Julian for two days , along with making him stay home from the annual nature retreat . As he and his parents leave , a remorseful Julian apologizes to Tushman for his behavior which the principal proudly accepts . Via has her own teen problems as well as feeling left out with all of the parental attention given to her sick brother . Her best friend , Miranda , has been ignoring her all year but she meets a new boy Justin who encourages her to join Drama Club . Via and Justin develop a close friendship which later turns into a romantic relationship and her first kiss . Via is selected to be an understudy for the lead role in the school 's production of `` Our Town , '' but Miranda gets the lead role . Miranda realizes the pain and harm she 's done to Via , and on opening night pretends to fall ill . Via takes her place and gives a performance that earns her a standing ovation . During the nature retreat , Auggie and Jack are harassed by a group of seventh graders from another school and Amos , Miles , and Henry come to their defense . After their return to school , Auggie is generally more accepted by his classmates , including the reformed Julian . At the school 's year end graduation ceremony , Tushman announces that Auggie has been selected for the Henry Ward Beecher Medal for being a strong standing out student . Auggie receives a standing ovation . His mother Isabel calls Auggie her `` wonder '' . The movie ends with a shot of a floating astronaut : Auggie 's goal in life .

Music ( edit ) Bea Miller composed a song entitled `` Brand New Eyes . '' It was released on August 3 , 2017 . Wonder author R.J. Palacio has often credited Natalie Merchant 's song `` Wonder '' from her 1995 album Tigerlily as the inspiration for her best - selling book and at Merchant 's invitation , the song will be featured in the soundtrack . Release ( edit ) Wonder was scheduled to be released in the United States on April 7 , 2017 by Lionsgate . On February 13 , 2017 , it was announced that the release date for Wonder had been pushed back to November 17 , 2017 . Wonder had its world premiere at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles on November 14 , 2017 . Box office ( edit ) Wonder grossed $132.4 million in the United States and Canada , and $167.4 million in other territories , for a worldwide total of $300.1 million , against a production budget of $20 million . Deadline Hollywood calculated the film made a net profit of $55.3 million , when factoring together all expenses and revenues . In the United States and Canada , Wonder was released alongside Justice League and The Star and was initially projected to gross around $9 million from 3,096 theaters in its opening weekend . However after grossing $740,000 from Thursday night previews and receiving a large number of group ticket sales , weekend projections were upped to $15 million . Weekend projections were again increased , this time to $28 million , after the film made $9.4 million on its first day . The film went on to debut to $27.1 million , finishing second at the box office behind Justice League . In its second weekend the film dropped just 17.7 % , grossing $22.7 million and finishing third at the box office . Critical response ( edit ) On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes , the film has an approval rating of 85 % based on 156 reviews and an average rating of 7 / 10 . The site 's critical consensus reads , `` Wonder does n't shy away from its bestselling source material 's sentiment , but this well - acted and overall winsome drama earns its tugs at the heartstrings . '' On Metacritic , which assigns a normalized rating to reviews , the film has a weighted average score of 66 out of 100 , based on 33 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews '' . Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` A + '' on an A+ to F scale , one of fewer than 80 films in the history of the service to receive such a score . Some with craniofacial disorders have criticized the film for casting an able - bodied actor as Auggie , and have branded the plot an example of inspiration porn .
