Wonder Chapter 107 Summary

Alien

  • Firecrackers are not the only thing being lit out in the woods—the kids smell cigarettes too.
  • Jack and Auggie encounter a group of kids also coming out of the woods.
  • As the beam of their flashlight illuminates Auggie's face, a girl screams.
  • Auggie thinks maybe a bug has flown into her face, but when the boys are laughing and cursing as they shine their flashlights onto him, he gets it.
  • Auggie and Jack start to leave, but one of the kids cuts them off so that he can continue to insult and abuse Auggie for the amusement of his friends. These are big kids, probably seventh graders.
  • Miles, Henry, and Amos materialize out of nowhere, and tell the mean kid—named Eddie—to leave August alone.
  • As Jack and August turn to leave, Eddie yanks August's hoodie so hard that he slams onto his back, whacking his elbow really hard on a rock.
  • Amos hurtles into Eddie, there's a mad skirmish, and the next thing we know, everyone is running like wild through the dark.
