The Invisible Boy

Fantasy, mountain magic, the impatience of youth, and loneliness of old age are the timeless elements that work to make this a whimsical and sensitive tale. When a young boy visits his mountain-dwelling aunt, he is put off by her solitary strangeness and unmoved by her love for him. He wants to go home but the lady seems to entice him with a little hocus-pocus that makes him think he has become invisible. (Short Story Library Series)
