    Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements
    One morning, Bobby Phillips, Chicago high schooler, wakes up to find himself invisible(or rather, doesnt find himself visible). He immediately tells his parents, who are very supportive. His parents decide that Bobby needs to keep his invisibility a secret. Because Bobby can no longer attend school, the DCFS gets on the case. Bobby needs to find a way to become visible before the investigative services arrest his parents. While invisible, he meets a blind girl, whom he befriends.
    This is an interesting book, about a lot of things. It is, most obviously, speculation about what being invisible woulod be like, but it is also about friendship, being disabled, families, and being a teenager.
    Question: If you woke up to find yourself invisible, would you tell your parents? anybody else?
    Happy reading.
