Christina Diaz Gonzalez is the author of Moving Target, The Red Umbrella, and A Thunderous Whisper. Her books have received numerous honors and recognitions, including the American Library Association’s Best Fiction for Young Adults. With text in English and Spanish, Invisible: A Graphic Novel (Graphix) – written by Gonzalez and illustrated by Gabriela Epstein – follows five very different students forced together by their school to complete community service. As it turns out, they may have more in common than they thought. George is the brain, Sara is a loner, Dayara is the tough one, Nico is rich, and Miguel is an athlete. They’re sure they have nothing in common with one another, though some people see them as all the same: just five Spanish-speaking kids. Then they meet someone who truly needs their help, and they must decide whether they are each willing to expose their secrets to help or stay invisible to survive middle school. Invisible is a book about unexpected friendships and being seen for who you are.
