Wonder, by Raquel J. Palacio. In Wonder there is a kid named Auggie, and he has had many surgerys and in the end of the book Auggie makes a lot of friends. Friendships make you change your thinking on people. In the book Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling, Harry doesn’t know a lot about what goes on in the outside world. His parents died when he was younger. Themes of Bullying in Harry Potter, and the theme of friendship in Wonder. Author's Craft, in Harry potter first person narrator, and in Wonder Multiple points of view. Symbols in Harry Potter, Harry’s scar, and in Wonder Auggie’s Helmet.

It seems like this in Harry Potter as well because Harry is new to this wizard thing and so are other kids, but Harry was supposed to be really smart and everyone knows him. But Harry seems to be bullied and those people

For this unit, I completed 2 independent reading books: The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. These 2 books are completely different. The Lord of the Rings was a more challenging book because there was more description and harder words, where the Harry Potter book was an easier read because it’s a book I’ve read before. On my HSPE reading assessment I got 100 percent. I could read the questions and find that answer with several examples from the text. When I analyzed texts I would read each paragraph and summarize it and then at the end put all the summary paragraphs together to summarize the whole story. My target for this unit was to create (sic – find) a theme from my book and use evidence and I could go back into my

Harry potter and the prisoner of Azkaban is an excellent book. Out of ten stars I would rate this one an eight because it was to short. Once you get into it and finish it.
