India the Invisible is a tender and empowering picture book about identity, self-worth, and the quiet strength of being seen. India wears a sparkly purple cape—not to be a superhero, but to feel noticed in a world where she often feels invisible. At home, her parents are distracted. At school and church, she fades into the background. The cape, a gift from her late grandmother, is her way of feeling special. But everything begins to change when India starts second grade and meets Ms. James, a teacher who truly sees her. With gentle encouragement and a heart-to-heart with her mom, India begins to realize: she was never invisible.
