Beresford delves into these themes through the extraordinary life of Victor Stott, a child whose abilities defy conventional understanding. As Ginger Stott, Victor's ambitious mother, navigates the complexities of raising a gifted child, readers are confronted with questions about the nature of normalcy and the societal implications of abnormality. This thought-provoking novel invites students, civic activists, and historians alike to reflect on the boundaries of human capability and the perceptions that shape our world. Discover the power of intellect and the struggle for acceptance in "The Wonder."
