The sentence that is unnecessary in the trailer is: "Baseball, video games, and ice cream were three of his favorite things."

While it adds some personal detail about August, it does not contribute significantly to the main themes of his experience at school and his feelings about being different. The other sentences provide context about his background, feelings of fear, and concerns regarding fitting in, which are more central to the story.
