Invisible Boys
by Holden Sheppard
There’s just something about Australian YA lit that is just so good. Real, raw, relatable. It’s books exactly like these that help kids not only navigate the roller coaster of puberty, they also portray various instances of strained relationships, personal insecurities and the quiet solitude of being misunderstood. Stories such as Invisible Boys, that are set in local and rural communities provide relatability and reliability which is so important. Not only do they help teenagers on their own journeys, they also help adults, parents, guardians, teachers to communicate and understand the challenges our youths face everyday.
We need more stories like these. They’re important for all of us to read. For the youth to know they’re not alone and for the adults to look back and recall that it wasn’t as easy as our memories make us believe.
