This book is about a boy who wakes up one morning and notices that he is as neat as a sweet hart, Stanley did not like the way he looked so he decided he did not want to look like that so he went to the store and bought a whole pack of invisible ink. And he used that to draw on himself so he would

look not so neat. Stanley thought he would just look sloppyer but instead he looked invisible and he went down for breakfast and he started talking to tell his parents that he was invisible but his parents did not listen and they ran out because they thought he was a ghost.

This modern fantasy children's chapter book tells us about the crazy life of the Lambchops. One night, Stanley is awoken by the storm that is outside but he also realizes that he is very hungry. So he finds some fruit and eats it while looking out the window at the storm. The next morning Stanley's

family is looking all over for him and he looks down at himself and he realizes the unthinkable: He is INVISIBLE. This story goes through all of the adventures that Stanley and his family face while Stanley is invisible. Stanley proposes to someone, catches burglars, does a magic trick, and so much more! However, being invisible isn't always fun, sometimes it is nice to be seen. So Stanley's brother Arthur decides to recreate the storm that Stanley saw that one night. Stanley eats the same fruit during this fake storm and it works! Stanley is visible once again!

Stanley may have thought his adventures were over after his flatness, magical genie escapade, and time in space were all concluded, but not so. He has many more unusual experiences in store. In this story, he manages to make himself invisible. This occurs because of the odd combination of a

lightning storm, eating raisins, and being hit in just the right two places, all at the same moment. By this time, the Lambchops are a bit when it comes to their son's unusual life changing occurrences, so they don't waste time in fretting, but hustle him off to the doctor.

Stanley uses his powers for good - helping his little brother get a taste of fame and stopping a robbery. But he is relieved to be back to normal by the end of the book, thanks to the help of his whole family.
