Riassunto

When his parents are lost in space, Sam is left, heartbroken, in the care of the horrible Hilda Hardbottom. Then he finds a tiny spaceship in the cabbage patch and meets a little alien called Splodge. How Splodge makes him invisible, and how Sam uses his new talent in his darkest hour, makes a touching and extremely funny story with lovely memorable characters.

Gardner's playful hyperbole and spry pen-and-inks are certain kid-pleasers. Ages 7-up. (PUBLISHERS WEEKLY)

This story sparkles with originality and appealing out-of-the-ordinary events to provide a rivetting read. (JUNIOR MAGAZINE)

What makes Gardner's book special is not just the cleverness of its plot, but its charming linguistic zaniness... It's a pleasure to read - to yourself and aloud. (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)

Funny and exciting (Townsille Bulletin)

A heart-warming and laugh-out-loud story with wonderful memorable characters (Middleton and North Manchester Guardian)

Funny imaginative and touching, the Invisible boy sees Sally Gardner writing at the height of her powers. (LOVEREADING4KIDS)
