Invisibility
By: Jennifer Ciliberti
Homeless Children
These children are invisible because no one really thinks or cares about homeless children/ people enough to help them. They are invisible to the world because no one pays attention to homeless people/ children, they only care about themselves.
Things Not Seen
In the book Things not seen, not only was Bobby literally invisible, but he was also emotionally invisible. For example when Bobby was telling Alicia his problem of how he was invisible, she was very understanding. No one really understood Bobby or listened to him. SO he had made a new friend
The Circuit
Panchito (main character) is a Hispanic boy on the move, meaning his family is always moving because they cannot find work. So Panchito and his family had found work on a farm, and Panchito's parents are able to send 1 child to school each season. So Panchito goes to school in the fall while his brother stays and helps work and earn money. The reason Panchito is emotionally invisible is because he has no friends, because in the text Panchito clearly states "Mr. my beast friend at school." So this clearly indicates that he has no friends.
