In the book Wonder if you know.
Jack says the bravest thing he ever did was “becoming friends with August.” How was Jack brave to become friends with August?
Jack begins to hang out with Auggie, remarking that he got used to Auggie's face and that Auggie is actually a pretty funny kid. Eventually, Jack realizes that he actually does want to be friends with Auggie of his own accord. When Auggie suddenly gets angry and stops talking to him, Jack is extremely confused: he cannot figure out Summer's "Bleeding Scream" hint. This section is very important, because it at last gives readers Jack's side of the story. Since the end of the novel's first section, Jack has been painted as a villain. Via's and Summer's sections have also featured strong responses to what happened between Jack and Auggie: both Via and Summer are extremely upset about what has happened. But like any complex character, Jack has his own story, and in this section we learn that he may not be as mean as he appears to be.Jack is in fact not a "villain". Like Auggie, Jack has his own story. Jack shows that he is brave enough to connect with Auggie instead of simply doing what is expected of him by others.
