Wikitastic Book Review By: Rachel P

Setting Time period(year it takes place) Around the year 2000 place Spalding Street Elementary(Melody’s school) Melody’s House time All around the clock

Problem(s) Melody can’t express her thoughts when her family needs them most. Everyone treats Melody like she is not smart just because she is disabled, when in retrospect she is WAY smarter then them! All of Melody’s smarts are stuck in her head, and she can’t stand it!

Solution Melody gets help from friends and devices that solve certain problems that I won’t tell you about, but I will tell you that Melody finally stands up for herself in front of her classmates. Also, she realizes that “normal” isn't always better!

Major Characters Melody Mom Dad Penny Mrs. V Butterscotch Rose

Minor Characters Classmates in class H-5 Classmates in other classes Dr. Hugely Mr. Dimming Middle Characters Claire Molly

Character Traits Melody Showed Kindness-Melody bought a thank you card for Ms. V (Melody’s neighbor)and Catherine(her helper) and thought of them before herself Bravery-Melody wanted to be like everyone else that don’t have physical problems, so she tried out for the Wiz Kidz team Thoughtful- Melody flailed her arms and made a screeching noise to make her mom aware whenever she saw someone getting hurt

Rating This was one of the best books I have ever read!(TOTALLY) This was an OK book(no) This was the worst book I have ever read(DEFINITELY NOT!)

Recommendation I would definitely recommend this book to you. Out of My Mind is a realistic fiction novel that has MANY deep thoughts that will really get you thinking about how people who are disabled feel. I really started to realize how lucky all of us are, and that we should be thankful for simple things, like our eye sight, working arms and legs, and our voice. My last book group and I realized that this book is GREAT to discuss. We had lots and lots of deep(and long) book talks.
