The Unforgettable Message From Wonder to White Bird

Learning about the world as I was a young girl growing up, I imagined kindness to be the way in which we all lived our lives, for the most part, on a daily basis. Innocence will give the world a hopeful filter to soften our perspectives. As time passes and life experiences begin to sweep away at our hopes, we see another view of the many different people we encounter each and every day. Through our individual and collective experiences, our life circumstances shape our actions, interactions, and reactions in a multitude of behaviors. Free will is the guiding force behind our choices. Our true power comes from our ability to make wise choices. Be Brave. Choose Kind. We were given the honor of partnering with Kingdom Story Company and Lionsgate for an advanced viewing of the inspiring move, White Bird. Courageously taking us on an emotional journey,  the story of this movie is filled with the beauty of kindness and love during the most devastating situations. R.J. Palacio, bestselling author of Wonder, the book inspiring a “Choose Kind” initiative, released White Bird as the inspirational next chapter of the narrative. Expect to hold close to your heart, the unforgettable message from Wonder to White Bird.

The Unforgettable Message From Wonder to White Bird


White Bird


"From the world of Wonder, which sparked a movement to "choose kind," comes the inspirational next chapter: White Bird. Struggling to fit in at his new school after being expelled for his treatment of Auggie Pullman, Julian (Bryce Gheisar) is visited by his grandmother (Helen Mirren) and is transformed by the compassionate and heroic story of her attempts to escape Nazi-occupied France during WWII. From the director of Finding Neverland, White Bird reminds us to be brave and choose kind."

Nostalgic, historic, and authentic storytelling at its best, White Bird is envisioned as emerging to stand as "the right story at the right time". Transporting us into Julian's life following the uplifting conclusion of Wonder, White Bird explores the lifechanging younger years of Julian's grandmother as a young girl in France. Introducing Julian's namesake and his impactful significance in grandmother Sara's childhood, we are immersed in a story filled with remembrances of love, joy, fear, devastation, and hope.

Passionate and powerful, White Bird slowly paints a picture of a place where love and loss are both close at hand in any moment. We can only imagine the tremendous amount of faith we'd would find ourselves bringing forward to tell our stories. Innocence fades into the complexities of reality. Sara's story shares the impact our choice to do what is right, against all odds, can make for other people. I connect deeply with her journey as I learned that we will be helpful to others, as well as depend on help from others.
