Melody Brooks, a sixth grader with cerebral palsy, has a quick wit and a sharp mind, but because she is non-verbal and uses a wheelchair, she is not given the same opportunities as her classmates. When a young educator notices her student's untapped potential and Melody starts to participate in mainstream education, Melody shows that what she has to say is more important than how she says it.

I read the book nearly 2 years ago, and while this kind of story works even better when you are truly in the head of the narrator, this adaptation was still pretty good Sweet family movie with good heart and humour, Mrs. V and Melody especially were incredible!
When I read the book years ago, I was already in awe of it. It was a very beautiful book, full of emotion, but also a slap in the face. When I saw that it was adapted into a movie, I watched it at the first opportunity and I can say with certainty that it is not easy to come across a work that can be transferred from a book to a movie so successfully. The movie really did a very successful transfer. As much as I admired Melody when I read the book, I felt the same way in the movie. Melody missing the plane broke my heart again, but despite everything, she went to class and said everything she wanted to say in a nutshell, that was so satisfying... And the Jennifer Aniston detail in Melody's inner voice was so sweet... Especially the speech during the credits made my eyes smile with tears. To all the Melody's in the world, go girl!
10/10 will make you cry .
