Tweens Read: "Out of My Mind" by Sharon Draper

"Tweens Read" is a book club just for Tweens (young teens and kids on the verge of their teen years)! You can join by coming to Spencer Road Library and picking up a copy of this book at the Children's Desk. (Copies will be available one month prior to the discussion, and only while supplies last.) Read the book on your own, and then come join us at the hosting branch at this specified day and time for a discussion and activities focusing on the book for this month with other tweens! At that time, you'll be able to return your copy of the book. (Have a fun time at Tweens Read? You'll be able to sign up for the next month and pick up a copy of that book at the end of the program if you like!) For this month's read: 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. Prefer reading it as an ebook? Or prefer listening to it as an audiobook or an eaudiobook?
