Fans of Sharon M. Draper's OUT OF MY MIND will be thrilled to hear about the final book in the trilogy, OUT OF MY DREAMS. Melody's adventure continues as she travels to London.
Melody was sitting in her wheelchair looking across the street at Miss Gertie's house at the perfect time. Miss Gertie is out checking her roses when she falls. She is unmoving on the walkway. Melody tries to holler for help, but no one hears her grunts and squeals. That's when she remembers what she's learned about 911.
Melody calls 911 and bravely uses Elvira to communicate when the 911 operator answers. In no time, sirens sound off in the distance and help arrives. Miss Gertie is taken to the hospital.
Soon Melody is getting phone calls from reporters and television news stations. Everyone is calling her a hero. Miss Gertie recovers thanks to Melody's quick response. Melody is offered a chance to participate in the I.D.E.A. conference in London. She can hardly believe she'll be flying on a plane and traveling to another country.
Author Sharon M. Draper concludes Melody's story with an adventure like nothing readers could ever imagine for the young girl who can't walk and can't talk without the help of her speaking device, Elvira.
