WONDER, New Director
Back in November of 2012, months after it began its slow and steady climb up the NYT Children’s Best Sellers list, Lionsgate bought the film rights to Wonder by R.J. Palacio, (RH/ Knopf Young Readers).
After announcing a director just this past fall, Lionsgate has a new one in place, Paddington director Paul King. The book is #1 on the NYT Children’s Middle Grade best seller list after 125 weeks.
