These excerpts introduce the story of August Pullman, a ten-year-old boy with significant facial abnormalities who is transitioning from homeschooling to attending a private middle school in Manhattan. The text highlights August's nervousness about starting school, his medical history, and the challenges he faces interacting with classmates, including instances of staring, whispering, and outright meanness. The narrative shifts perspectives to include August's older sister, Via, revealing the impact of August's condition on their family dynamics and Via's own experiences navigating friendships and independence. The excerpts showcase August's developing friendships with Summer and Jack, the bullying he endures from Julian, and the overall theme of kindness and acceptance as characters learn to navigate August's unique circumstances and their own.
