Peterson Cecily AnnePaperback 2020-07-01
The Invisible set of three novels follow 13 year old Jazmine, who doesn't make choices, doesn't make decisions, doesn't make friends. To get through school in one piece, she'll have to deal with the death of her dad, figure out how to cope with her anxious mother, and work out that she does in fact have something to offer the world. Over the course of three books, Jazmine must find her own voice and make her own decisions as she comes up against upheaval, bullying and control, difficult relationships and betrayal. She also learns what true friendship means, the value of family, and how change can be a source of joy.
Clean and inspiring, but also sensitively tackling real issues and feelings, these novels suit middle grade and early YA readers who love a good cry, or want to cheer on a female character who finds her voice and her spark.
