Something Invisible
Eleven-year-old Jake likes thinking, encyclopedias, and football. And fish. Although he's not so sure about everything else--especially girls, or little sisters, or stepdads. But an unlikely friendship with eccentric Stella Daly helps him figure out some of it. That is until a tragedy changes everything, even the way he thinks about himself. Something Invisible is a warm and quirky, sharply observed story of family, friendship, loyalty and loss.

For any one struggling with the meaning of family in this age of mixed, strained and separated families, this book will ring true. I adored the main character, Jake, and loved how the plot and dialogue mimicked real life to an amazing extent. And yet, the author moved you inexorably toward wonderful conclusions about life and loving. How rare to find that all in one book! Please read!
