Part One and Part Two of Wonder chart the same events in the same time frame from different points of view.

Auggie

Mom takes Auggie to the school to meet Mr. Tushman; they also encounter Mrs. Garcia, the office aide. Mr. Tushman then introduces Auggie to three kids who will be in his grade at Beecher Prep Middle School: Jack Will, Julian, and Charlotte. These students take Auggie on a tour of the school, showing him where he will have homeroom. Julian asks what happened to Auggie's face; Charlotte scolds Julian for being rude, and Jack defends Auggie as well. When he gets home, Auggie tells Mom how the tour went. Mom is shocked that Julian asked about Auggie's face, and says that Auggie does not have to go to school; Auggie realizes, though, that he actually does want to go.

Via:

Things have become different between the three friends since the beginning of high school. Miranda does not let Via know when she gets back from being a counselor at summer camp, and the two girls do not see each other until the first day of school. Miranda looks so different, with a new, bright pink bob hairstyle. Via also realizes that Ella and Miranda have gotten together during the summer without her. Miranda's mother is supposed to drive Via home on the first day of school, but Via does not want to be in the car with the new Miranda, so she secretly takes the subway home.
