Candice is writing about characters in Wonder by R. J. Palacio. "You know what an eraser is, right?" Charlotte asked me.

I admit I was feeling so nervous that I didn't know what to say or do except look at the floor.

"Hey, can you talk?" asked Jack Will.

"Yeah." I nodded. I still really hadn't looked at any of them yet, not directly.

Which best shows that Candice has made a personal connection to understand August’s character?

I understand how awkward August feels. Sometimes I get really nervous and quiet around new people.
I am really loud around new people. I try to cover up my shyness by being very funny and telling jokes.
August should not be so quiet around the new kids. If he would just talk, the others will get to know him, and they will be friends.
Jack Will and Charlotte were not very considerate of August’s feelings. New kids do not like when people ask lots of questions.
