    The book Out of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper, is about a middle school girl named Melody. Melody has cerebral palsy which doesn't allow her to do may things. She is very kind and smart and now has made the Kidz Quiz team. Rven though she has cerebral palsy, she doesn't allow that to keep her from being a normal child.
     The parts of the body are affected by cerebral palsy, the level of serveity and combinations of symptoms can differ from each person. Another person may have little or no control over their movements or speech and require 24 hour assistance which is what my character Melody needs. Melody is affected by this in ways that she can't keep corrct or cmfy posture, she can't move and she can't eat without assistance. This book connects to real life because there are many people that have this disability and are affected by it every day.
     This story teaches me that you shouldn't judge kids by the outside or their athletic ability because it's whats inside that counts.. It also teaches you t stand up for others when people are judging them. This book is very inspiring and a  great book to read.
