The Invisible
by Tom Percival
Isabel's family cannot afford to stay in their home and move to the cold side of the city, where she starts to notice the people nobody sees.
A story about children and families, moving and thoughtful in tone. We would put it with children of 4–8, and at a reading age of about 6 for reading alone.

Or let them write their own.
Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
