Today we read chapters 6-7, in these chapters we learned about two characters very different Mrs. V and Mrs. Billups. Mrs. V is a very caring loving person who helps Melody learn to crawl and flip over. She is very understanding of the disability and loves to help their family. She has a very colorful personality and worked as a nurse with Melody’s mom before retiring. I think she plays an important role in Melody’s life because she shows her how to move even with the disability she has and shows her that even though it’s hard to move around and speak there is always another way. This is a necessary addition to Melody’s life because it truly shows just how smart and determined Melody is.
