In this chapter we heard about a new device called Medi-Talker. Melody’s computer changes her life by her finally being able to talk. Her outlook on life has changed because now she has the ability to show people how she feels. Her potential has changed because now she can show people her grades, what she needs to work on, what she is good at, and take more tests. She named her new talking device Elvira because that is her favorite song.
