Which sentence from wonder best reveals august's feelings through indirect characterization? the last surgery i had was eight months ago, and i probably won't have to have any more for another couple of years. what i wanted was to go to school, but only if i could be like every other kid going to school. mom sat down in a chair in front of mr. tushman's desk, and even though there was another chair right next to hers, i decided to stand beside her. i'm not exaggerating when i say this, but my heart literally started beating like i'd just run the longest race in the world.
