This book would be appropriate for middle school because of the length.
This book is about a young girl with cerebral palsy and a photographic memory as she learns to navigate school and longing to be noticed as just another student.
I would recommend this book in a classroom as a form of disability representation or to bring awareness to cerebral palsy.

Melody has Cerebral Palsy, and can't talk, but she is smart, and she has a lot to say and no words to use.
This book would be great for a read aloud for fourth graders or for casual reading for 5th - 12th graders.
