I thing Julian change because when he was little he was friends with Aggie at one time. But then when Aggie starter going to go to school with Julian changed. When he when to his grandmothers house he told her everything he did to Julian. Then he went on his computer and made out a long letter to his favorite teacher and after that he made a letter to Aggie to say sorry for all i did to you. That how i thing Julian changed at the end.

After reading the book my feelings for Julian changed because he is so mean to Auggie and I don't think he should be mean to him. In the book, Auggie & Me, Julian bullied Auggie, I don't think people should be bullied.

I felt that after I found out what really happened to Julian, then I realized who he really was as a person. The story about why his name is Julian was like the other side of Julian but in a good way.

My feelings changed about Julian after reading Julian's point of view. At the beginning of the book, he and his mom were jealous of Auggie. After his Grandma told Julian about her story, now Julian started being nice to Auggie. He even sent a letter to Auggie.

After I read the point of view of Julian I think my opinion changed about him. I think he changed because before, Julian was all mean just like when he was writing notes to Auggie in wonder. In Auggie and me, he's not as mean as he was before in wonder. He doesn't have nightmares lately. So every time his mom talks about Auggie, via, or someone or something about there family he just roles his eyes. I think in the end he's going to be best buds with Auggie. Jack and Julian were like best friends in the beginning. But, that changed because there was a time were Julian punched Jack and now there not friends anymore. I think Julian is mean and rude but also nice. Mean because he made everyone stop liking Auggie, he punched jack in the face, he wrote bad notesto Auggie like "I hate you why are you even here" or something. I think he just didn't like Auggie because Auggie has a deformity. That's all that's wrong, he doesn't have special needs. I don't think Julian realizes how hard Auggie's life is.

So my opinion has not changed about Julian because in Auggie and Me in Julian's point of view (which is the first point of view) Julian was saying how he wasn't saying mean jokes he was telling teasing jokes and he was saying how people have to lighten up about what he says about Auggie cause he says he was not being mean and he was just saying teasing jokes and he thinks his jokes are funny and there not a big deal , he also said how he only says stuff behind Auggie's back and never to his face cause it well hurt someone's feelings. In Wonder after Jackwill punches him because he thought Jack shouldn't work with Auggie cause he was a freak so he tried to make the teacher make them project partners because Julian said "You don't have to work with the Freak" which made Jack mad cause he and Auggie were friends so he punched Julian , so Julian told the principal that Jack probably punched him because he was insane but he wasn't. In Auggie and Me Julian said that it was Auggie's fault for coming to Beecher prep and how Auggie ruined his social life and his friends and his fun. Last of all Julian was leaving notes in Auggie's locker with words that said you freak shouldn't have been born and Get out of our school freak and other mean notes.

Throughout the books Wonder and Auggie And Me my opinion on Julian changed a lot. In Wonder Julian was a jerk to Auggie. He picked on him and teased him and did many other things to him. But then in Auggie And Me he started to feel “sympathy” for what he did to Auggie and he apologized to him. Here's some text from Wonder that shows Julian was a jerk. This is what Julian said about Auggie "You don't have to be friends with that freak if you don't want to" and this is even what Jack Will said about him "He's a jerk". In Auggie And Me this is him being nice “ I finally felt that word that Mr.Tushman was talking about, symphony.” And he felt it for Auggie. To summarize I think that my opinion on Julian changed from being a total jerk, to actually feeling sympathy for him.

Yes, my point-of-view has changed because Julian was mean in Wonder and then he was nice in Auggie and Me. Julian heard a story from his Grandmere and then he realized that he takes a lot of things for granted. He also learned that sometimes in life, you can fix mistakes, so he sent Auggie a letter and it said,

My opinion on Julian has changed. In the book Wonder on pg.154 Julian told Jack that you don't have to be with that freak for the project and Jack and Auggie were friends so Jack punched Julian . In the book Auggie and me Julian wrote notes to Auggie, there were like I hate you freak and I bet your mother wishes you'd never been born you should do everybody a favor and die.This is when my opinion changes on Julian, in Auggie and me Julian goes to his Grandmother's house and his Grandmother told Julian a story The Germans were coming for all the Jewish children and they had to exit the school right now but she stood back and hid in the school she heard the Germans inside the school and she also heard them go up the stairs to where she was she knew that there was a couple other kids in the school. Then she heard a little voice saying “sarah sarah”. She saw it was tourteau. Tourteau was a boy he was very skinny and none of the kids at the school talked to him because he made them uncomfortable. He brought Sarah (Julian’s Grandmother) to his house and hid her. Then one day he got captured even know he isn't Jewish. Tourteaus’s name is actually Julian so his Grandmother named Julian’s dad after Tourteau’s and Julian’s name also Tourteau’s middle name is August. Then Julian felt so bad because even know nobody payed attention to Tourteau he still saved sarah so Julian wanted to change everything he has done. He then calls Auggie and apologies to him and tells him that he wished that he could do a do-over. I think Julian changed a lot my opinion changed so many times.

Julian was just a flat out teasing bully in the beginning but after his visit to grandmere's house in Paris he changed. Why? Because he got his name from a person that was crippled Tourteau . He stopped bullying Auggie who has deformed a face. Julian said," Put

Yes Julian did change because I thought was being mean to be mean but now I know that he was trying to be funny and after he went over his Grandmere's house in Paris she told him a story about a part of her life that was important to him and where he got his name from a person that was named Tourteau which meant crab in French and he was crippled so he "always walked sideways like a crab" that's what Grandmere said. So then she said she he got his name from him and then he got sort of shocked that he got his name from a person that was crippled and that he was bullying Auggie who was I guess also has special needs so he felt really bad so then he emailed his teacher that he was going to say he is sorry about what he had done,so all that night he couldn't stop thinking about August so the next day he wrote a letter to him saying "Dear Auggie, I want to apologize for the stuff I did last year. I've been thinking about it a lot. you don't deserve it. I wish i could have a do over. I would be nicer. I hope you don't remember how mean I was when you're eighty years old. have a ice life. ,Julian

In WONDER I thought that Julian has a complete jerk because he gave Auggie mean notes, called him a freak behind his back, had bad dreams about him just because he looked different from everyone, tried to accuse Auggie for giving mean notes to him but they were just some jokes. But once I read "Auggie and Me" in Julian's chapter (the whole thing) I kinda felt bad for him because he found out he was named after a hero (which nickname was Tourteau which meant turtle) that saved his grandmother (and was deformed like Auggie) he started to cry and wrote Auggie a apologize note and told his grandmother all he had done. That's when I started to fell bad.

My opinion of Julian did change. In Wonder, I saw him as a mean and cruel person. In ''Auggie and Me", we found out that Julian was having nightmares about Auggie. That made me think that Julian was afraid of Auggie, so he felt as though being mean would make him leave. Then he heard the story about Tourteau, the crippled boy, and realized that even people with disabilities can be brave and have feelings. That was when he started to feel remorse for his actions toward Auggie. Then I realized how immature Julian had been. He had been afraid of Auggie and he should have just befriended him so he most likely wouldn't be afraid anymore. To me, Julian changed from meaan, to scared, to remorseful because he ended up giving Auggie an apology letter, so he really changed.

No my feelings or opinion about Julian did not change through reading his point of view. Because in the Julian chapter it said on page 5 , " Put a mask on , Auggie. Get your face out of my face, please!" I feel really bad for Auggie he did not do anything to Julian. Julian is just being rude because of his appearance. It also says on page 15 it read," The first look I gotof August made me want to cover my eyes and run a way screaming ." I think Julian is being rude because Jack Will is friends with Auggie and Julian is jealous, What's your opinion..
