In the last half of Things Not Seen by Andrew clements multiple investigations go on. Bobby's and Alicia's parent investigate what happened to Bobby, Bobby's school investigates where Bobby is and Bobby and Alicia investigate his situation also. After being absent from school for a long period of time, many weeks, his school gets antsy and people are sent to Bobby's home to find out if Bobby was ok, his mother is forced to lie many times saying that Bobby was in Florida with his aunt and that he had the flu. Bobby's and Alicia's super prfessor dads think of theories of what could have happened and Bobby and Alicia do the real action and write down the facts. With the help of Bobby the two fathers figure out that the blanket was the cause of the invisiblity and with Alicia's help Bobby figures out that to reverse his condition he needs to sleep with his blanket again to turn visible again.
Quotation: "go turn on the blanket and take a particle bath--you can't get morte invisible--maybe it'll be like two negatives make a positive." pg 227
Reaction: my reaction to this quote is that it is a great idea and why haven't the genius dads thought of it. Maybe if they have seen the movie Stand and Deliver they would have remembered that "a negaitive times a negative is a positive".
