R.J. Palacio was inspired to write Wonder after she had an experience involving a girl with a facial deformity like Auggie' s. She was with her young son, who began to cry after seeing the girl' s face. Worried that her son would create a scene, she quickly removed him from the area. Palacio realized later that, even though she was trying to be helpful, her actions could have hurt the young girl' s feelings even more.
