Popular children’s author Andrew Clements scored a young adult hit with Things Hoped For. Things That Are continues the story of Bobby Phillips—the boy who woke up one day to find himself invisible—and his friend and confidante, a blind girl named Alicia. Bobby is returning from college visits in New York, and Alicia has decided to finally confront him about her feelings. But a mysterious character with an affliction similar to Bobby’s and some surprise visits from the FBI threaten to destroy everything.
