    I think it's called Things Not Seen because there might be more than one invisible thing. (Meaning Bobby)

    True Griffin but still in the title Things Unseen, things is plural still implying more than one thing not unseen.

    I think the title is Things Not Seen instead of Things Unseen because for one, it sound much better. But also, Unseen means that things are not perceived and well as invisible, nut Bobby is kind of perceived. You can perceive him you just cannot see him. The things are not seen but perceived.

    I totally agree with Gabby. Bobbys isnt totally unseen but just not percieved by the human eye.

    I don't know why I agree but I do. By the way, what does percieved mean?

    Percieved is that you know Bobby is in teh room just not his exact location because the human eye doesnt see him.

    We will!

    Oh! Thank you Jane! Now I know!
    I agree. Hey guys, which do you think is better being invisible or barely seen, just barely?

    I would think being ionvisble would be better Griffin. Firstly, If you were barely seen even just barely your still seen right? Yet, if your invisible you can go anywhere and everywhere and people would never know where you are.

    I think it is called things not seen because this is all evaluating the things atually seen, not for the most part on not seen. It is tough, but that is what i realized. I would rather be barely seen because then i wouldn't have to go everywhere naked. that just sickens me. If you were barely seen then people would believe you and want to help you, i would not like to be completely transparent though.

    The title Things Unseen and Things Not Seen are both very similar. They mean the same thing to me but Things Not seen has more zest in it like the commercial that says "Jazz it up with Zataraans."

    Things Unseen is too hard to pronounce and Things Not Seen has more of a dramatic effect to me. I don't know why but it does.

    1. I think that it is called Things Not Seen instead of Things Unseen because "unseen" sounds strange to me. Also things that are unseen can mean that it was never seen before. Not seen just means that you cannot see it this very moment, unless it was Things Not Seen Before.

    Stephen don't you think Things Not Seen Before sound like something no one has ever seen like a live dinosaur or aliens?

    1. I think the book is called, "Things Not Seen" instead of "Things Unseen" because it gives a poetic effect and adds a more mysterious feeling. Either way works and means the same thing, but "Things Not Seen" is more catchy.

    Jason,
    To answer your question, I don't think Things Not Seen Before sounds like it is talking just about aliens or live dinosaurs. There are many things that humans have never seen, so your new book title could be talking about a broad catagory.

    I think that Things Not Seen sounds better and makes the nook more interesting to read so maybe it also attracts the readers.

    I think that the book is called Things Not Seen rather than Things Unseen because it flows nicely together. Although, I do think that Things Unseen makes more sense!
