The Out of My Mind Series

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 whole 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, because Melody can't talk. She can’t walk. She can’t write.

Melody, the huge-hearted heroine of Out of My Mind, is a year older and a year braver. And now with her Medi-Talker, she feels nothing’s out of her reach, not even summer camp. There have to be camps for kids like her, and she’s going to sleuth one out–a place where she can trek through a forest, fly on a zip line and ride a horse. A place where maybe she can make her own decisions, do things herself, and maybe maybe maybe, finally make a true friend.

Melody flies to London to speak at a convention about differently abled kids in this ‘warm and beautifully told’ (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) sequel to the acclaimed, New York Times bestselling middle grade novels Out of My Mind and Out of My Heart.
