Summary
The book 'Things Not Seen' is a book by Andrew Clement. Its about a boy named Bobby Phillips, that lives in Chicago ,who woke up one morning getting ready for school finding out he is gone. Not dead, just disappeared, completely invisible! The problem is that Bobby nor his family have and idea how he became this was. Bobby learns what its like to have a disability by meeting Alicia Van Dorn who has been blind for two years. The story felt so realistic you would never guess how Bobby becomes indivisible!
My Opinion
When I first started reading I thought this was stupid. 'A boy that’s invisible, how cheesy is that?' As the book progressed, I regretted the words I said. It was fantastic! I loved how serious it was. Bobby being invisible was not seemly fictional. Bobby didn't become invisible by some magical fairy casting a spell. In the end it seemed one hundred percent scientifically possible! Also I love the character depths in the story. Bobby's friend Alicia has been blind for the past two years. You learned throughout the story how hard it is. If anything it taught me to appreciate the small things in life. I also loved that Bobby meets someone else who is invisible. The facts that amazed me was that, even when Bobby found the solution she didn't want to change it. I love how in just three weeks Bobbys whole outlook on life is completely changed. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a short heart feeling book on an interesting take on what its like to be handicap, you'll never wish to have invisible powers again!
