Children of the Red King #3: Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy
Children of the Red King #3: Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy | Jenny Nimmo
The third book in the Children of the Red King series, CHARLIE BONE AND THE INVISIBLE BOY offers more magical fantasy that is fast paced and easy to read. This semester at Bloor's Academy brings a few changes. There is a new art teacher, Mr. Boldova, and a new student named Belle, who lives with the Yewbeam aunts and seems to have strange power over them. Emma and Charlie soon discover Mr. Boldova's secret identity: He is the older brother of Ollie Sparks, the boy who lives in the attic of Bloor's Academy. Ollie had always been prying into matters that didn't concern him, so Ezekiel Bloor had made him invisible. When Charlie and his friends find him, Ollie is alone and hungry, so they promise to help him become visible again.

Charlie Bone off to stick his neb in dangerous places to save other children once again. The circle of friends gets tighter and tighter as the lines between friend and foe are clearly drawn and amidst it all poor Billy is still left with no one to defend him from the Bloors and their machinations. Not just yet.

So much happened in this one! Charlie Bone gets into many a scrape, from (accidentally) unleashing an ancient sorcerer from his painting, finding an invisible boy, being trusted to look after his best friends dog (Horrible Grandma Bone is as anti animal as they come so this is no easy task for Charlie), uncovering the new girls secret, finding the blue boa mentioned in the title annnd uncovering a bit of his family tree! No dull moments!

This is my 'the traffic is unusually horrendous, I'll stop and try the new vegan burger at grill'd' dinner...

Joanne1 I like it. I got sick of traffic so moved to the country. Perhaps I could have just grabbed a burger. 8y
Reviewsbylola Solid plan! 🍔 8y
Jaimelire That's the way to do it! 8y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag I think there must have been an accident or a drugs bust because it usually takes 20 minutes to get home and it was pushing 40 by the time I detoured past grill'd @Reviewsbylola @Joanna1 @Jaimelire - traffic had returned to normal by the time I'd read a few chapters and eaten this burger (which was magnificent! I'm a creature of habit and almost always order the same thing, so I'm glad I tried this!) 8y

Eating my lunch outside under the careful watch of a beady eyed monster (I mean, Magpie 😖) which is now being fed bread by a maniac one picnic table away... Almost time to go back to work... didn't do more than gaze at this gorgeous cover!

Smangela These covers are gorgeous! Mine are older editions, I'll have to post a pic when I get home! 8y
