Horn Book (Mon Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2016)

After middle-child Bill asks his preoccupied family to pass the potatoes and no one notices, he turns invisible--and they don't even take that seriously! When they realize he isn't there to take out the trash, Bill's family finally unplugs and pays attention. It's a pat resolution, but Bill's frustrations are relatable. Digitally colored pen-and-ink drawings effectively play up the text's wry humor.

Bill just wanted someone to pass him the potatoes.

     Unfortunately, no one even noticed--not his mother (a very busy woman with an important job), not his father (a very important man with a busy job), not his very intelligent older brother, not even his very athletic little sister.

     If someone had noticed, the wonderful, terrible thing that happened might never have happened.

     But it did.

     InvisiBill is the hilariously absurd, tongue-in-cheek story of an ordinary middle child who feels so overlooked by his busy, distracted family that he becomes invisible ... or InvisiBill!
