Out of my mind by Sharon M Draper

Winner of the 2013-2014 MCBA book awards, Out of My Mind is one of the best books I've read in a while! This is a book about a genius girl named Melody. But Melody isn't just any girl, Melody can't walk or talk, but is super smart! Melody has a photographic memory, but can't share it with the world because she can't talk. Everyone addresses her as mentally challenged, but she is smarter than all her classmates. She is desperate for people to know her knowledge, and one day her wish comes true. Melody is given a special talking computer which allows her to communicate with others! This also allows Melody to share her knowledge. This book will completely change the way you look at people with disabilities, not to mention give you a surprising, touching, story that you won't forget!
