Review Detail

The Invisible Hero is NOT just about Philip. It is NOT written in just Philip's point of view, but it is written as journal entries from everyone in the class. The blurb is very misleading, don't be fooled.

The Invisible Hero is though about Philip and his classmates story on how they complete the hero/villain project, and it reveals the heroes and villains inside all of the characters, even the teachers. This book deals with our modern day issues at schools, bulling, done by both teacher and student alike. It is awful to realize this happens to people across the globe, and it could even be worse.

I think at first the writing style was confusing, as I was mixing up characters, thinking that Macca and Philip were the same person, but after I got into the book, I definitely saw the personality differences. I like how this book didn't just target the bully and the victim, but it got the witness, who play a vital part in this cycle. I have never come across this in another book.

The Invisible Hero is a different version of the classic bully story, but with different twists that pull the story together really well, and if you enjoy that sort of book, than this amazing book is definitely for you. Take the time to read this book, to open your eyes to what might happen to us children.
