Yesterday, I went to Gramedia just to see a couple of books which I think it's good. Then I saw this novel, which was made for kids (around 10 and up). The named is Out Of Mind, and the story is about :
Eleven-year-old Melody has a photographic memory. Her head is like a
video camera that is always recording. Always. And there's no delete
button. She's the smartest kid in her whole school—but no one knows it.
Most people--her teachers and doctors included--don't think she's
capable of learning, and up until recently her school days consisted of
listening to the same preschool-level alphabet lessons again and again
and again. If only she could speak up, if only she could tell people
what she thinks and knows . . . but she can't, because Melody can't
talk. She can't walk. She can't write.
Being stuck inside her head is making Melody go out of her mind--that is, until she discovers something that will allow her to speak for the first time ever. At last Melody has a voice . . . but not everyone around her is ready to hear it.
