The Invisible Boy
Written by Trudy Ludwig

The Invisible Boy is about a boy named Brian who feels invisible, sad, and left out at school. A new student named Justin comes to school, but other kids tease him when he has different food. Brian draws Justin a picture, saying that he thinks his food looks good, and Justin and Brian become friends. This helps Brian feel important and inspires other students to be kind to Brian and start to include him.

The illustrations show Brian as invisible when the story starts. After he and Justin start to become friends, he starts to have more color. The pictures helped me understand how the kids feel because you can look at their faces to see the emotions.

I really liked this book because I liked it when Brian became happy. If Brian is happy, then I’m happy! All of my friends would like to read this book.
