Eleven-year-old Melody is not like most people. She cant walk. She cant talk. She cant 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. Shes 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 cant tell them otherwise. But Melody refuses to be defined by her disability. And shes determined to let everyone know it...somehow.
