Its friday again! yay! my weeks being ok considering its school it hasn't sucked much. I borrowed some new books from the library and my favorite is Out Of My Mind by Sharon Draper. It's really good its about a girl with Cerebal Palsy named Melody.
The blurb is: Eleven year old Melody has a photographic memory. Her head is like a video camera that is always recording. Always. And there's no delete button. She's the smartest kid in her school- but NO ONE knows it.
Most people- her teachers and doctors included- don't think she's capable of learning, and up until recently her school days consisted of listening to the same preschool -level alphabet lessons again and again and again. If only she could speak up, if only she could tell people what she thinks and knows. But she can't. She can't talk. She can't walk. She can't write.
Being stuck inside her head is making Melody go out of her mind - that is, until she discovers something that will allow her to speak for the first time ever. At last Melody has a voice... But not everyone around her is ready to hear it.
