When fifteen-year-old Bobby wakes up and finds himself invisible, he and his parents and his new blind friend Alicia try to find out what caused his condition and how to reverse it.

Liz says:

“Andrew Clements is just an amazing author. He can write about so many different topics but this one is the most amazing and fantastical. Bobby has gone invisible and he is desperate to reappear. His father is a physicist who just can’t seem to help him. One day when Bobby makes a trip to the local library he encounters Alicia who is blind. His invisibility, therefore, is irrelevant. Through their relationship, Bobby learns the true meaning of being invisible. This book sheds a lot of light on how people feel when they are disregarded.”

The noisy fifth grade boys of Laketon Elementary School challenge the equally loud fifth grade girls to a “no talking” contest.

Liz says:

“Clements is a master at depicting school life. Kids will love the fast paced story told though the viewpoints of the kids and the teachers. This is a fun read with lots of good lessons.”

When he decides to turn his fifth-grade teacher’s love of the dictionary around on her, clever Nick Allen invents a new word and begins a chain of events that quickly moves beyond his control.

Liz says:

“This fantastical, wonderful book is loved by everyone. Clements always finds a way to deliver important messages through totally entertaining stories. This is a must read.”
