If you did read Wonder , one of the most controversial character of the book was Julian, the bully. His story needed a bit more space than a single chapter, that's why R.J Palacio decided to write this short-story on the main antagonist of the book. 
 Julian didn't help making Auggie Pullman's school life any easier since he got into his school. He hates him, he treats him like he has the plague, but why does he do it? He is just an horrendous kid or is there something more behind it? 
 The writer put us in the position of seeing the world with the bully's eyes, a peculiar perspective we are not always used for. I did appreciate her effort, but I wasn't able to understand or relate with Julian in any way. I simply didn't like him and couldn't justify his actions and even less his parents, whom I hated to the core.Given the incompetent parents his only chance of redemptions comes from the grandma, who with a moving story, makes him understand his mistakes. 
 It was interesting reading his perspective but even if the writer intended to redeem him she did it in the classic fairytale like way, where everything is changes in a blink of an eye. I hope it will be more interesting to read about the other to characters: Christopher and Charlotte. 
 I still think this books have a perfect educational purpose, they should recommend this reading in every school.
