Things Not Seen, by Andrew Clements [YA Fiction]
by Aziza, 7th grader
Bobby is your average kid. He has friends, goes to school, and does everything else a normal kid would. But the morning he woke up and couldn’t see himself in the mirror, flipped his life upside down. And the cause that made him invisible? No one knows. Bobby’s parents refuse to take him to a doctor, avoiding having the news of an “invisible human being” spread around for the entire world to see. Bobby’s life couldn’t get any more complicated, right? Wrong. His parents get into a bad car accident and need to stay at the hospital, leaving invisible Bobby home alone. People start to wonder: what happened to Bobby? Is he dead? Did he move? Then, one day, Bobby meets Alicia. Alicia turns out to be blind, and as Bobby’s new friend, maybe she can help. Will Bobby EVER be visible again? Read Things Not Seen to find out.
