Wonder author visits middle school
BY HEATHER FIORE
The Montgomery Sun
On Jan. 9, Brooklyn resident
and author R.J. Palacio visited
Montgomery Lower Middle
Schools (LMS) fifth and sixth
graders to give a presentation
about her internationally ac-
claimed book Wonder, which
was chosen as book of the year
for students this past summer.
Wonder follows the life of a
10-year-old boy named August
Pullman, known as Auggie, who
was born with extreme facial ab-
normalities.
The book chronicles the jour-
ney of Auggie, who dreams of
being ordinary, as he transi-
tions from being home-schooled
to entering the fifth grade at a pri-
vate middle school in Manhattan
known as Beecher Prep.
Upon entering his new school,
Auggie endures taunting and crit-
icism from his classmates about
his looks.
The book is kind of a medita-
tion on kindness and how the im-
pact of kindness can really
change the world, Palacio said.
I want kids to realize that the
things that they do, great or
small, are noticed, and they can
impact on other people by choos-
ing to be kind. Its a very simple
message.
During Palacios presentation
at LMS, she revealed how many

BY HEATHER FIORE
The Montgomery Sun
In an effort to save taxpayers of
Montgomery some money on
their electric bills, the Mont-
gomery Township Committee
passed a resolution to go out to
bid for electric services using the
Highland Park-based energy con-
sulting firm Gabel Associates at
its meeting on Thursday, Jan. 17.
The committee agreed to sub-
mit an application to the E-Pro-
curement Pilot Program, waiver
requests and online auctions
which offer bidding over the In-
ternet for services and bulk com-
modities under the recommen-
dation of Township Administra-
tor Donato Nieman.
The E-Procurement Pilot Pro-
gram was established in New Jer-
sey under the Division of Local
Government Services, and is
available to all municipalities.
"We all know of the offers that
will lower your electricity bill by
switching utility suppliers; well,
state law allows for towns to es-
sentially negotiate on behalf of
their residents and businesses
and to come up with a contract
for the entire community, Mayor
Ed Trzaska said. Savings could
be between 10 and 15 percent,
which would amount to between
$150 and $200 per year for an aver-
age household.
Under law, all municipalities in
New Jersey have the option of
purchasing electricity at rates
lower than currently available
from the residents' electric utility
by switching providers, which is
what Montgomery is attempting
to do.
This process only looks into
where the supply of electricity

T
he beginning of a new year is
always a good time for everyone
to look ahead, make plans and
figure out the best ways to make the
upcoming months as productive and
positive as possible.
Its no different here at The Sun. We
look forward to 2013 and continuing to
be a part of the communities that we
serve.
Our No. 1 objective is to publish
newspapers and, now, websites that are
a reflection of the values and priorities
of the communities we serve. That has
been our top priority since we began
publishing back in 2004.
That doesnt mean that everyone al-
ways will agree what they see in our
papers or on our websites. Reasonable
people can and often do disagree about
public policy, taxes and much more.
But we remain committed to produc-
ing a product that truly is part of
everyday life. We want to cover the sto-
ries that are important to you. That
might mean that we tell you that your
taxes are going up, or that theres a
fundraiser scheduled at a local school.
Not every story changes the world, but
that doesnt mean that theyre not
worth telling or sharing with the en-
tire community. That includes the
often-overlooked stories about accom-
plishments and good deeds that make
every town special.
To achieve our goal, we need your
help. If you have an event coming up,
tell us about it, and well tell everyone
else. If you know of someone in the
community who has excelled at some-
thing, or who has gone out of his or
her way to better the town, we want to
know about that, too.
We depend on you, our readers, to
shape each weeks edition of The Sun.
That will not change in 2013, or any-
time in the future.
These are your newspapers. We
want you to claim them and help us
cover the news important to you.
in our opinion
Looking forward to a big year
As 2013 moves along, we want to continue to be a part of your lives
2013 and beyond
The Sun newspapers always have
strived to reflect the values and priori-
ties of the communities they serve.
That wont change in 2013. But to
achieve that goal, we need everyones
help to get important news out to the
entire community.
This information was provided by the
Montgomery Township Police Depart-
ment.
On Jan. 4 at 12:05 p.m., police responded
to Montgomery High School to investigate
the report of students in possession of
drugs and drug paraphernalia. Respond-
ing officers were advised by the high
school principal that an 18-year-old female
was found to possess suspected marijuana,
drug paraphernalia, and alcohol on school
grounds. In addition, a 15-year-old juvenile
female student was also found to possess
suspected marijuana and drug parapher-
nalia. The 18-year-old female was arrested
and transported to police headquarters for
processing, where she was charged with
possession of marijuana less than 50
grams, possession of paraphernalia, and
underage possession of alcohol. She was
released on her own recognizance pending
an appearance in court. The juvenile fe-
male, who had been turned over to her par-
ents by school staff prior to police arrival,
is also facing charges of possession of CDS
and drug paraphernalia.
On Jan. 8 at 11:40 p.m., police arrested a
20-year-old Rocky Hill resident during a
car stop on Rt. 206. Ofc. Jason Clifford
stopped a 1994 Toyota Camry for a moving
violation. Ofc. Clifford smelled the odor of
marijuana in the vehicle and determined
that passenger was in possession of a bag
of marijuana. He was transported to HQ
for processing and charged with Posses-
sion of Marijuana Under 50 grams. The
driver of the vehicle received a summons
for Failing to Keep Right. The passenger is
scheduled in appear in Montgomery Twp.
Municipal Court.
On Jan. 9, four vehicles were broken into
while parked in the lot of The Nassau Rac-
quet and Tennis Club, which is located at
1800 Route 206 in Skillman. The four vehi-
cles, a 2007 Volkswagon, a 2010 Volkswag-
on, a 2006 Toyota and a 2013 Land Rover, all
had a single window smashed out. Cash,
credit cards, a checkbook, clothing and an
IPhone were among the items stolen. The
break-ins occurred in various places in the
parking lot between the hours of 1 p.m. and
2 p.m.
A 15-year-old resident of Bridgewater re-
ported to police that on Jan. 12 while at-
tending a music event at Montgomery
High School someone stole his cell phone
and case worth $300.

Residents do not have to participate
comes from; PSE&G is Mont-
gomery's distributor and will re-
main so, Trzaska said. As such,
if we decided to move forward
with this program, everyone in
Montgomery will still be PSE&G
customers, receive PSE&G bills,
and call PSE&G whenever there
is a problem. This is essentially a
behind the scenes process that
will not impact our residents, ex-
cept to lower their bills.
Gabel Associates was contract-
ed to search for and negotiate any
possible deals or bids for electrici-
ty prices on behalf of the town-
ship.
President and founder of Gabel
Associates Steve Gabel attended
the meeting to detail all of the
leg work his company will be
doing for the township.
He explained how Gabel Asso-
ciates is going to take a no sur-
prises approach, meaning the
process will be very transparent
between the company and town-
ship and residents.
When we roll this thing out,
we want everyone in the munici-
pality to be fully aware of it, he
said. In my mind, that would in-
clude mailings, internet postings,
leaflets, and other forms of com-
munication to make sure people
have a full opportunity to under-
stand the program and comment
on the program. We also recom-
mend there be a public meeting.
If residents have already
switched their electric providers
to save money, they are not part of
this process and will not be affect-
ed.
Trzaska and Gabel explained
how all residents will be atomical-
ly enrolled in the program, but
are given the option to opt out of
the program at any time, even
after the program starts.
If you dont want to partici-
pate, you dont have to, Trzaska
said. Theres multiple ways to
opt out.
The resolution that was passed
is the first step in the process,
what officially kicks off this ef-
fort, according to Township At-
torney Kristina Hadinger.
Its not something that hap-
pens overnight, she said.
Theres still a lot of is to dot and
ts to cross.
Trzaska echoed Hadingers
comments and detailed how this
process will take a couple of
months to complete.
If they [Gabel Associates] ob-
tain a bid that is attractive, we
[committee] will then decide to
accept the contract and enter into
the program or not, he said. It
is important for the township
committee to seek new and cre-
ative ways to reduce the cost of
living in Montgomery. As such,
we are excited about this opportu-
nity and will do our due-diligence
to see if it will work for us."

Skip the hassle. Just get paid.
aspects of the book are based on
her own personal experiences, in-
cluding the day-trip to the ice
cream shop with her two sons,
which inspired the entire concept
of the book.
I had a very brief encounter
with a little girl who looks very
much like the Auggie in the book,
and that just got me thinking
what life must be like for some-
one having a cranial facial differ-
ence, and then that got me think-
ing about the themes of the
book, she said. Even though I
dont have any children with cra-
nial facial differences like Auggie,
a lot of the book is about my fami-
ly and taken from my life, which
some people think is interesting.
Palacio detailed her life-chang-
ing experience to the LMS stu-
dents and how she wishes she had
handled the situation differently,
a lesson she hopes to teach all
children who read Wonder.
I kept thinking about it, and I
thought how I was disappointed
with myself because I had re-
sponded from a place of fear, and
what I wish that I had done is re-
sponded out of kindness, she
said. Really what I should have
done was not walk away like
there was something wrong with
this girl, but I shouldve starting
talking to her. I shouldve en-
gaged her in a conversation and
shown my children that there
was nothing wrong with her. It
was a teaching moment that I
kind of let slip away because I
just didnt know better at the
time.
I realized, because I thought a
lot about it, that it should be the
natural default action in every
situation that were in in life, she
added. If we choose to be kind,
and if we make it our natural de-
fault, no matter what we do, we
can deal with it we know the
right way; well never be wrong if
we air on the side of kind.
Palacio also explained why she
plotted the story in middle school,
another aspect of the book that
was inspired by her actual life.
My older son just finished
fifth grade when I started writing
the book, and I watch as grown
ups do, on the sidelines as this
fifth- and sixth-grade year unfolds
in the lives of our children, and it
can be really tough to watch
sometimes, she said. In a way,
its the first time that kids are
making decisions on their own.
The heartbreaking part to me, as
a parent, is not the way kids go
the way that they go, because
thats going to happen, but its
when they choose to do it in a way
thats unkind. For some reason, I
realized that just a reminder to
choose to be kind is all thats nec-
essary.
Palacio further detailed that
day, when she encountered the
young girl who ultimately created
the character of Auggie, and how
the song Wonder came on the
radio the lullaby she sang to her
oldest son when he was a baby
which immediately resonated
with her and made her choose
that as the title of her book.
I started writing that very
night, she told the students.
Palacio, who is director of chil-
drens books at Workman Pub-
lishing, began her career as a
book cover illustrator.
Having children is what actu-
ally really lead me to a deep inter-
est in childrens books, so I start-
ed illustrating my own childrens
books as Raquel Jaramillo, which
led me to my current job, she
said.
Palacio, whose real name is
Raquel Jaramillo, detailed why
she uses the pseudonym R.J. Pala-
cio.
Palacio is my mothers maid-
en name, so when it came time to
choosing a name, I really wanted
to honor my mother who passed
away nine years ago, and I
thought taking her last name for
my author name is the right way
to honor her, she said. Raquel
Jaramillo Palacio was too long to
put on a book cover, so I short-
ened it to R.J. Palacio.
Wonder is the first book Pala-
cio has authored, which has been
published in 25 different lan-
guages. There is also talk of a
movie, according to Palacio, who
previewed a trailer at the LMS
presentation.
Aside from the Wonder
movie, Palacio is currently work-
ing on her second book.

Wonder and Palacio, go to rj-

(NAPS) As more and more
young (and old) couples seek
novel wedding sites, theres been
a significant increase in making
wedding memories where Ameri-
cas history was made. And one
such special place is Valley Forge,
in Montgomery County, Pennsyl-
vaniaPhiladelphias biggest
and most affluent bedroom.
Here, amidst the spectacular
backdrop of 3,500-acre Valley
Forge National Historical Park,
the betrothed flock to Washington
Memorial Chapel in search of
open dates for exchanging vows.
One of southeast Pennsylvanias
most popular and majestic wed-
ding sites, the chapels rich deco-
rative elements commemorate
George Washingtons life and the
nations earliest history. Its also
known for its exquisite statuary,
wood carvings and soaring
stained glass windows.
Nearby and nestled among 175
acres of meadows and hills, the
John James Audubon Center at
Mill Grove offers a setting for
magnificent weddings and recep-
tions in any season. Flanked by
50-year-old sugar maples, the
quarter-mile driveway to the cen-
ter offers early hints of the splen-
dor of this 175-acre estate, looking
still very much how Audubon
found it in 1803.
His historic home, set along the
Perkiomen Creek in Audubon,
Pa., is a haven for birds and
wildlifeand photographers. The
wild pear orchard, 19th century
fieldstone barn and winding
creek set a stage for unforgettable
wedding ceremonies in a charm-
ing, new outdoor pavilion.
Green Lane Park, in the north-
west corner of Montgomery
County, comes by its name hon-
estly. The beautiful view across
its lake, from a quaint pavilion,
creates an idyllic canvas for sea-
sonal colors to complement any
nuptials. Dont forget the wide-
angle lens.
Historic Graeme Park trans-
ports visitors and wedding par-
ties back in timeto the 18th cen-
tury. Its Keith Houseonce the
residence of Colonial Pennsylva-

The first home in America to artist/naturalist John James Audubon has
served as a stately backdrop for many elegant receptions.
Make wedding memories where history was made
(NAPS) More and more
brides and grooms are discover-
ing a delightful new twist on an
old wedding tradition.
Bridal registries have long
been the way for engaged couples
to identify exactly what they
need and want to start their
lives together. Traditionally,
young couples who were estab-
lishing a home together created a
registry chock-full of household
items. Nowadays, however, many
couples prefer a new registry
trend that can help turn the hon-
eymoon they envision into a well-
planned reality.
The increasingly popular hon-
eymoon registry lets friends and
family help the bride and groom
afford a trip to Fiji, the Caribbean
or anywhere in the world they
dream of going. Instead of pur-
chasing an impersonal set of flat-
ware or risking a duplicate gift,
wedding guests can now con-
tribute to unique experiences
that can help make a couples
honeymoon all the more memo-
rable, such as sponsoring a cou-
ples massage, a sunset cruise, a
snorkeling excursion or a helicop-
ter tour.
As one bride, Lisa Dexter John-
son, put it: Our honeymoon in
Hawaii was a once-in-a-lifetime
trip that we will always cherish.
Our friends and family loved the
idea of being able to help us cre-
ate memories that will remind us
of them.
The only major honeymoon
registry service that also offers
full-service, complimentary trav-
el planning is 1-800-Registry. Its a
free online registry that makes it
simple to select unforgettable
honeymoon gifts. The company
will even contribute $200 to get
the honeymoon fund started.
In addition, couples can make
the most of their honeymoon trip
with some proper planning:
Start early. The sooner you
decide where youre going and
where youre staying, the more
likely you are to get what you
want at a good price. It will also
give you time to arrange for pass-
ports and visasthis may take
time, especially if a name change
is involved.
Go later. Many couples
take the time right after their
wedding to settle in and unwind
and plan to take their honeymoon
trip when they have more time or
more money or when the destina-
tion is less expensive or less
crowded.
Get to know the destina-
tion. Check out the weather, the
amenities and the costs. You can
consult with a 1-800-Registry Hon-
eymoon Specialist for all the des-
tination details.

registry, view a registry or learn

Honeymoon registry a popular option for brides and grooms
(NAPSA) More and more,
couples now vow to start their
lives together by making a differ-
ence in the lives of others.
Saying I do to a wedding that
benefits a charity is easier than
you might imagine and espe-
cially timely, as many charities
need extra help during a time of
economic downturn.
By the time many couples get
married, they often dont need an
extra toaster but would really ap-
preciate a donation to the charity
of their choice.
Giving is a great way to start
your life together and coming up
with a list can provoke some
meaningful conversations about
values.
Here are five heartwarming
ideas you may want to consider:
1. Feed the hungry. If you
have unopened food and bever-
ages left over from your wedding,
donate them to a nearby food
bank or soup kitchen.
2. Share your flowers. After
the wedding, drop off your flow-
ers at a hospital or nursing home
so others can enjoy them.
3. Buy wedding essentials
from companies that donate to
charities you support.
4. Donate your bridesmaid
dresses to an organization that
supplies prom dresses to girls
who cant afford them.
5. Register your wedding.
Ask your guests to donate to a
charity they identify with you.
You can even suggest a Web site
through which they can donate
a sort of customizable wedding
charity registry.
One site that offers a wedding
registry service features charity
gift cards guests can order. The
site lets brides host a personal-
ized Web page there are a num-
ber of themes from which to
choose which can be used to
send information, e-mail invita-
tions and updates. The charity
gift cards also make great wed-
ding favors.
