Question

What is Via's perspective on Auggie in the Wonder Book or audio book?

Answer 1

Via's perspective on Auggie is loving and caring, however, sometimes she doesn't feel as if her voice is heard, and she can get tired of always being ignored due to Auggie's needs. The text states,"I'm (Via) used to the way this universe works. I've never minded it because it's all I've ever known. I've always understood that August is special and has special needs. If I was playing too loudly and he was trying to take a nap, I knew I would have to play something else because he needed his rest after some procedure or another that left him weak or in pain. If I wanted Mom and Dad to watch me play soccer, I knew that nine out of ten times they'd miss it because they were busy shuttling August to speech therapy or physical therapy or a new specialist or a surgery... so I've gotten used to not complaining..."

Answer 2

Via always wanted to protect Auggie so he can be safe. It is like when Jake stared at him when he was young, Via looked meanly at them to protect Auggie and make him safe!
