Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy
 Jenny Nimmo

Reviewed by:  Melissa M.

Fantasy

Plot :
 

  After Charlie accidentally lets an evil wizard out of a painting, he must find a way to send the wizard back into the painting. Charlie has also found an invisible boy who needs Charlie's help. Everyone thinks that Charlie's dad is dead, but Charlie knows he is alive. Charlie is looking for his dad.

good:

I love the way Charlie is in danger, and the way the danger pushes him to solve the mystery. I feel like I am one of Charlie's friends and I too have a secret that I have to keep. This is the third book in the series, and it makes the series so much better.

weaknesses:

I like this book better than the second book in the series, but the characters still act in ways that are not always believable. Sometimes Charlie gets in the same kind of trouble as he did in a previous book. This made me think that Nimmo may be running out of ideas.
