Melody (Phoebe-Rae Taylor) suffers from cerebral palsy, and her intelligence is all stuck in her head. Although she cannot speak, her heart is rich and soaring freely. While attending an ordinary elementary school, she encountered discrimination and setbacks along the way. But she wants to prove to the world that what you say is more important than how you say it. The film is adapted from Sharon M. Draper's best-selling novel of the same name.
