What is a book that you still sometimes re-read?

I have read Out Of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper at least 6 times. This book was the first book that made me cry.

This book tells the life of a girl named Melody who has cerebral palsy. Because of her cerebral palsy, Melody cannot walk or take care of her own needs, but worst of all, Melody cannot talk.

Melody has a photographic memory. She is very smart, really smart, but since she cannot speak, she cannot share this information with people, and at school she is often referred to as disabled by other students. As you can imagine, her life is hard, but that doesn’t stop Melody from being a sweet, smart and inspiring person. I definitely see the dedication to life, optimism and hope in Melody. When I first finished reading the book, I was grateful that I could talk, walk and meet my own needs for the first time in my life. Yes, being able to speak and having a voice is much more important than we think. By writing Out Of My Mind, Sharon M. Draper helped us empathize with people like Melody and reminded us how lucky so many of us are to actually be able to talk and walk. Whenever I need feeling lucky and hopeful, I take this book off the shelf and read a few pages. For me, every page in the book is meaningful and makes me feel good.

What is the book that you still re-read from time to time and what makes you keep reading it?

I apologize if the translation and pronouns are wrong, I use translation.
