About this listen

 A New York Times bestseller for three years and counting and now an original film on Disney+!

“A gutsy, candid, and compelling story. It speaks volumes.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
“Unflinching and realistic.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

From award-winning author Sharon Draper comes a story that will forever change how we all look at anyone with a disability, perfect for fans of RJ Palacio’s Wonder.

Eleven-year-old Melody is not like most people. She can’t walk. She can’t talk. She can’t write. All because she has cerebral palsy. But she also has a photographic memory; she can remember every detail of everything she has ever experienced. She’s the smartest kid in her whole school, but NO ONE knows it. Most people—her teachers, her doctors, her classmates—dismiss her as mentally challenged because she can’t tell them otherwise. But Melody refuses to be defined by her disability. And she’s determined to let everyone know it…somehow. Fiction Growing Up Growing Up & Facts of Life Literature & Fiction Special need

I adored this book! I relate to it a lot as a person with Cerebral Palsy myself I’m extremely lucky to be able to use my voice.
Apart from that Melody and I are pretty much the same. I really relate to when she’s describing her feelings.

So true!

This story resonated so much with me after working with young people with disabilities for 23 years. The main character, Melody grabs you from the start and drags you in to her world. I can’t wait to watch the film.

Heart warming story of courage, strength and determination.

It is a good story that makes me understand Melody and her disabilities and it could help others who read it, also get more of a view of how people feel with their own disabilities.

A really good story
