Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • A few minutes where the family deals with their elderly (and eventually deceased) dog.
  • Auggies facial deformity was toned down for the film to prevent scaring kids. In fact, his face looks hardly deformed at all in some shots. One shot that I'll warn you about is when auggie, Jack will, and Julian's friends go to the lake. As Auggie starts to cry from what had just happened, his face in one shot does look a bit scary, but it's only like 10 seconds long and his face returns to as it normally is near the end of the shot.
