"Things Not Seen" by Andrew Clements follows the story of a 15-year-old boy named Bobby Phillips, who wakes up one morning to discover that he has become invisible. As he navigates his new reality, he struggles with feelings of isolation and confusion. Bobby soon meets a blind girl named Alicia, who helps him come to terms with his situation. Together, they embark on a journey of self-discovery and friendship, ultimately exploring themes of identity, perception, and acceptance. As Bobby seeks a way to regain his visibility, he learns valuable lessons about what it truly means to be seen. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
