One night, the life of 12-year-old Silas turned into a nightmare: three horsemen took his father away. The boy is left alone with his worries. Unless there's a Gauntlet nearby, but he's a ghost. Life seems to have plunged into darkness. But somehow a mysterious pony appeared on the doorstep - and Silas boldly decides to leave home and go on a dangerous journey. The road will be scary and full of obstacles, because the boy will not only have to find his father, but also face his own fears. This is the way of growing up. A path led by a mysterious pony guide.

August (Auggie) Pullman was born with a facial deformity that prevented him from going to a mainstream school-until now. He's about to enter fifth grade at Beecher Prep, and if you've ever been the new kid, then you know how hard that can be. The thing is Auggie's just an ordinary kid, with an extraordinary face. But can he convince his new classmates that he's just like them, despite appearances?

Wzruszająca opowieść o walce dziecka z przeciwnościami losu. August urodził się ze zniekształconą twarzą.
