Original Note:
When asked in an interview what race Melody is, the author said, "I don’t know. For this book, race wasn’t important. If you have a disability, it really doesn’t matter what color you are... Melody could be French, Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese, Chinese." https://www.dispatch.com/story/entertainment/books/2021/11/07/books-sharon-draper-sequel-out-my-heart-cerebral-palsy-child/6249125001/
