Think of all the things we could get away with if nobody could see us! But how long would the fun last, if we had to do it all alone?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The chance to do anything we want, anytime we want, no consequences, and nothing to stop us. If you want ice cream for breakfast, go for it. Wear your shirt backwards and inside out, feel free! Skipping school on a whim, no one could say a word. Stay up past your bedtime, as easy as breathing. Play with your toys, read a book, sit outside and dream in the sunshine... anything you wish would be your own command... but, what about those other times?
What about those times we need a friend? What about playing tag or hide-and-seek... not so much fun solo. What about when you've had a blue day or you were simply feeling out of sorts... awfully hard to be cheered up if no one can find you in the first place. How about when you go to the movies? Or maybe when you want to share a laugh, a smile, or a memory? If you were invisible... what would those even look like?
In this colorfully illustrated story, we get a peek first hand at all the things RIGHT with being invisible, and all the things that might not feel so right after all. It's a great way to put your imagination to use, while reminding readers of all ages that being overlooked or overlooking someone is no fun at all; in fact, it can cause others to feel invisible. Instead, sewing kindness, spreading smiles, and good cheer should be the things we strive for to help the world be a better place, and make our own little corners that much brighter.
