Summary
Brenna and Joe check out Sharon Draper's Out Of My Mind (2010) about Melody, a non-verbal girl with Cerebral Palsy who wants to be able to communicate more than anything. Unlike so many other books about disability, however, this isn't a book about how Melody changes the world...and it's better for it! Plus: exceptional Middle Grade fiction; resisting the temptation of a fantasy ending; and garbage children and systemic barriers. Wanna connect with the show?
