Character development
“Look,” I said, stepping in front of Jack. “We’re a lot smaller than you guys …” ……And this was the point where I knew I should run away as fast as I could, but Jack was still on the ground and I was not to leave him.(L116-119)

“Yeah, dudes, thanks,” I said, holding my palm up like Jack just had, though I wasn’t sure if they’d high-five me, too.(L152)
……

August’s changes
“Leave them alone, dude,” said Henry, with Miles and Amos right behind him. (L122)
…the first guy yanked me by my arm and started pulling me behind him as we ran…(L132)
Henry looked at me and nodded. “It was cool how you stood your ground.” he said, high-fiving me.(L157)
The guys were really nice to me, though. They patted me on the back.(L167)
“You’re one brave little dude, you know that?” said Henry, ……he put both his arms around me like my dad would have done and let me cry.(L169)
……

The classmates’ changes
As readers, what can you learn from the characters?

Moral lessons
To unfriendly strangers
e.g. Never judge a book by its cover. He who has an ugly face may have a beautiful soul.
To August
You can’t blend in (混迹其中) when you were born to stand out. He is the greatest whose strength of courage carries up the most hearts by the attraction of his own.
To Henry
August can’t change the way he looks, but we can change the way we see him.
To Julian
Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.
To Eddie
Greatness lies not in being strong, but in the right using of strengths.
Use your strength in the right way. It is not cool to be a _________. What is really cool is to stand up for the weak.
__________ is a choice. It’s a simple thing like a nice word of encouragement, an act of friendship, a passing smile. Always choose to be a little kinder than is necessary.
