OUT OF MY MIND PB

A New York Times bestseller for three years and counting! A gutsy, candid, and compelling story. It speaks volumes. -School Library Journal (starred review) Unflinching and realistic. -KirkusReviews (starred review) From award-winning author Sharon Draper comes a story that will forever change how we all look at anyone with a disability, perfect for fans of RJ Palacio s Wonder. Eleven-year-old Melody is not like most people. She can t walk. She can t talk. She can t write. All because she has cerebral palsy. But she also has a photographic memory; she can remember every detail of everything she has ever experienced. She s the smartest kid in her whole school, but NO ONE knows it. Most people-her teachers, her doctors, her classmates-dismiss her as mentally challenged because she can t tell them otherwise. But Melody refuses to be defined by her disability. And she s determined to let everyone know it...somehow.
