📚 “The Invisible Boy” by Trudy Ludwig and Patrice Barton is a touching story about kindness and friendship.

Brian is a quiet student who feels ignored in class. The author writes gently, showing how Brian’s classmates don’t notice him. The pictures help us see his feelings through his sad eyes and hunched shoulders.

The book handles bullying in a simple way. It doesn’t use big drama—just small moments where Brian gets left out. Kids can recognize these moments in their own lives.

Everything changes when a new student, Justin, sits with Brian. Justin’s kindness makes Brian feel special. The story becomes warm as Brian starts smiling and joining in.

The bright illustrations show emotions clearly. Brian’s face lights up when Justin talks to him. The colors get happier as the story goes on.

The book teaches big lessons in a simple way. It shows that small acts of kindness can change someone’s day. Even adults will remember how important it is to include others.
