Trade Review“In another moment of wonder for the Newmans, Magda and Nathaniel are now authors themselves, just finishing their new book titled aptly enough, NORMAL: One Kid’s Extraordinary Journey.” — 20/20, ABC-TV "[A] narrative that capably explores self-image, human dynamics, and the meaning of normality." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Despite being dubbed 'Auggie Pullman come to life,' Nathaniel abundantly shows that he's his own multifaceted person... Funny, compassionate, and thoughtful." —Kirkus "Nathaniel’s story will inspire all children to celebrate their differences." —Booklist "[I]t’s the honest—sometimes joyful, sometimes painful, and occasionally unflattering—memories that prove most compelling." —Publishers Weekly "Nathaniel and his mother have written a powerful and honest memoir together....a compelling story, but when coupled with additional information about the much-beloved book Wonder (and the movie), this title is sure to fly off the shelves." —School Library Journal —
