The Invisible People series is a tribute to the people who hold very special jobs. Their work makes our world a better place. Yet, we may not treat them like they are a part of our lives. These beautifully illustrated books offer heartfelt stories that help children appreciate these unsung heroes in our society. They remind us that these workers are people who have the same needs and dreams that we do. They demonstrate how seemingly simple acts of kindness can make a world of difference, both to the workers who receive and the child who gives.

The other books in the series highlight the lives and work of domestic workers, construction workers, bus drivers, cleaners and postmen. You can find them here.
