1. Wikitastic Book Review By: Rachel P

2. 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

3. Problem(s) Melody can’t express her thoughts when her family needs them most. Everyone treats Melody like she has no brain and like she has a disease that messed up her brain, 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!

4. Solution Melody gets help and devices that I won’t tell you about, but I will tell you that Melody ends up standing up for herself in front of her classmates. Also she realizes that “normal” isn't always better!

5. Major Characters Melody Mom Dad Penny Mrs. V Butterscotch Rose

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

7. 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

8. 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!)

9. Recommendation I would totally recommend this book to you. Out of My Mind book is realistic fiction and EXTREMELY deep, so if you are someone who really like thoughtful, nice(and a little bit sad) books that really get you thinking, you would LOVE Out of My Mind!!!!!!
