Things Not Seen


Bobby Phillips is your average 15 year old boy. He gets up in the morning, showers, eats breakfast, catches the bus, and goes to school. One morning when Bobby gets out of the shower, he isn't so average anymore... He's invisible.

When he comes downstairs for breakfast, all his parents see is a floating towel. Astonished, his scientific father starts thinking up theories as to why he's become invisible. They decide that they won't tell anyone about Bobby's invisibility. In the meantime, Bobby can't go to school - or even go out in public! What would people think if they saw floating clothes?
Bobby finds a way to get out of the house... he just has to be naked. Bobby meets a blind girl named Alicia at the library. They soon form an interesting friendship. After making her promise not to tell a soul, Bobby tells Alicia about his secret of being invisible. But he can't live his life invisible for long... his school starts getting suspicious and they get the police involved.
Will Bobby ever be normal again? Or will he have to hide away forever? Read Things Not Seen for a taste of adventure, suspense, and an inspiring friendship.

Only I read it, but it was very good. I'm reading a lot of books that are told in first person, and this was one of them. Things Not Seen was pretty short... around 150 pages.
