Publisher's noteDespite how hard he tries, Calvin Schwa just can't seem to get noticed by anyone and becomes frustrated by his failure to make his mark in the world, but when his best friend begins to fade away, The Schwa can stand it no longer and decides to do something so drastic that no one will be able to miss him when he makes his next public appearance. AnnotationThis hilarious and heartfelt middle-grade novel travels with abrasive honesty into the cruel teenage world of the ignored and the mocked. Brooklynite Antsy Bonano discovers fellow eighth-grader Calvin Schwa, a kid who is so unnoticeable that teachers have been marking him absent for years. Together, they test the Schwa's ability to remain unseen by creating a series of pranks involving everything from a fluorescent sombrero to sneaking into creepy Old Man Crawley's place. Unfortunately, they are caught and must walk his 14 dogs as penance. But this punishment turns into a pleasure when Lexis, Crawley's blind but highly intelligent granddaughter becomes part of the deal. Fiction winner of the 2005 Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for Excellence in Children's Literature.
