I wonder why Julian tries to make August not feel welcome. At one point in Julians life he was new and wanted to feel welcome. I wonder why people put others down for no reason. I wonder if August will speak up to Julian and tell him to stop being disrespectful. I wonder if Julian tries to act cool making fun of others especially people like August who wont do anything about it. I wonder if one day Julian will understand what August feels like and will stop acting mean!

If I were August at his first day at school I would be scared because I would know people would stare or bully him. But I would also feel good that Summer understood what it like to be different. I would feel very unwelcome if people kept looking then talking to their friends about me. I would wish if I were August people could look past what I look like but for who I really am. I would feel kinda awkward eating around other people because he eats with his front teeth. I would feel unconfident about myself if I went to school thinking that Im ugly, because if you can't except yourself why should others. I wonder why August cut his hair and if Summer will stay his friend for the whole school year.
