Wonder Struck #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collected edition presents Brian Selznick's acclaimed 2011 graphic novel, which intertwines two parallel stories—one told in words, the other in pictures—set 50 years apart. It won the Schneider Family Book Award for Middle School, recognizing its exceptional portrayal of the disability experience through a deaf protagonist and a boy searching for connection.
In this poignant chapter of Wonder Struck, Ben finally meets the elderly Rose and Walter in a quiet bookstore, where their quiet conversation in American Sign Language unfolds a long-buried family mystery. As Rose shares memories of her life, her son, and the dioramas they built together—including the vast World’s Fair Panorama of New York City she still tends—she begins to teach Ben the language that has shaped her world. Written by Brian Selznick and lettered by Typeset, this heartfelt moment marks a turning point in Ben’s journey, bridging generations through silence and gesture.
