Invisible Disappearing Ink Pen... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WRR9QZN?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
In scratch.php they can obviously print it with a green background, so I am assuming you refer to when he speaks in conventional pages and you have to highlight his text to see it.
The coolest way to do it would be to print the text in white on a transparent plastic overlay layer on top of the regular white-background pages, and attach a black bookmark to the volume that can be slid in-between the transparent overlay and the page. Kind of like the way some kids science books have multiple layers that stack on the same picture with different descriptions of it.
Another visual technique would be to print the letters white-on-white with some sort of special ink that polarizes light, and attach a polarized plastic lens like the ones used in cheap 3D movie glasses to the package.
But I figure that would make the book expensive as all fuck. So probably they will go for the cheapest option and print the pages with the lines pre-highlighted. Perhaps printing the first page where he speaks twice, first without highlighting and then again with highlihgting, just to get the point across to the reader on what is happening.
EDIT: There is also the black-light technique. It is possible to print white-on-white using special ink that lights up when lighed with a violet light. There are even markers made with that, so it's cheap. They could print Doc's lines with that ink and package a cheap 35-cent chinese UV light with the books for the readers to use.
EDIT2: I found a toy that does something with glasses similar to my suggestion of the polarized lens.
Just get it here then.
If you want to make a faithful mockup of the blacklight version:
EDIT: Note that it takes special patience. You'll have to trace over your work one to three times to get it to glow properly on this quality of paper (without soaking through). Buuut, it's totally worth it to impress yourself and friendsโand definitely cheaper than the $1,500 you'll have to shell out on eBay to a third-party hoarder.
Not OP, but invisible ink pens that show up under black light (we bought these for a different element of the wedding, but thanks to this sub, I used them on the RSVP postcards, too!) https://www.amazon.com/MaleDen-Invisible-Upgraded-Message-Halloween/dp/B07CPKYJNC/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=2BADBQZZI9F5N&keywords=invisible+ink+pen&qid=1556645314&s=gateway&sprefix=invisible+ink%2Caps%2C122&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1
>I bought these pens definitely meant for children
I found this kid's book about Francis Drake: https://www.amazon.com/Sir-Francis-Drake-Daring-Deeds/dp/0374466882
Edit: also maybe some night vision goggles, a kid's flashlight, or some walkie talkies. Those all seem like adventurer's equipment.
I saw this come up which is the price range you said so I thought you meant that. Either way though that literally says it can only see 30 feet so my bet is in reality it sees 15-20. I see a review claiming only 5 feet. Also according to that review you can see the lights on it with your eyes, they must be really shitty mostly IR lights that still give off some visible light.
lol i'm tempted to get these
You might try using a UV pen to put a few dots on the back of a card, on the border? Youโd have to see how the โinvisibleโ ink interacts with the coating on the card, but that might be the least obtrusive way to do it.

I bought these and had the exact same result. Worked perfectly!
Could it be the "Yada Yada Yada"?

Get him one of these. Nightvision goggles that actually work, $50. Also check out Vat19 and thinkgeek for more ideas.
If you really wanted to go to town with the 'stranger' concept, you can buy a voice modifier to wear under your mask.
But you must consider whether this is a game she will enjoy, or whether she would get truly spooked by overdoing it on the first attempt. Don't screw up your relationship by making this too real.
haha, i think any of the ones on amazon will work:

Or, $63 + s/h. Yes, they're real.

Is that the nvg you have?
There are sites that tell you how to make your own ink, but I'm lazy and so I just bought these. I've had no issues with them working, and I just make every card look like it potentially has room for some hidden text to keep players from having an idea.

I have 2 pair of these and they work good enough to see 70 feet or more and cost next to nothing compared to even my GEN 1 or GEN 2 scopes. The 2 double AA batteries lasts about 2 hours of constant vision. It is just an IR cctv camera run on a battery with two little monitors.

I found mine for $25 on clearance.
We bought secret agent pens and wrote in "invisible ink" a number on each invite corresponding to a guest list. Was hoping I wasn't going to have to need to do that, but it HAS come in handy.
this is the car

don't quite follow - why would this be necessary?

Uh...non explosive right?

This is the sensors section.
If this is too technical then you can just buy on of the basic electronic kits off Amazon and use it...http://www.amazon.com/Spy-Gear-Micro-Agent-Motion/dp/B00KES43Z6/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1449842775&sr=8-18&keywords=sensor+toy
Same technology as this toy.
Ohhh! My 5 year old Jack is going to be a Spy Kid for Halloween and we just found the perfect spy glasses to complete his outfit!
I LOVE MY BABY!
I had this one https://www.amazon.com/Spy-Gear-Ultimate-Watch/dp/B004M17H68
The AAAs were dead, so I just popped in AAs and it seems to work fine.
It's one of these for anyone interested. Apparently you can write custom apps for it to run, so I'll have to look into that. Overall, not bad for 99ยข.
You can try Amazon. I got this set for my nephew. They're kind of toy-like but seem to do the job.
Or, online military surplus stores, if you haven't tried that yet.
edit: of
I found the almost exact same thing at a thrift for $10. My plan is to gut them and try to shove the hardware into a scope for my fancy painted Longshot. Mine is also missing the battery door.
Here's a link for Amazon, though I'd say $200 is a bit silly
Spy Net Night Vision Infrared Stealth Binoculars https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003AUF1XI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_MGHXBb8R4VN4R
Its because CCDs in webcams and phones can see a little into IR. Your human eyes can't see it, but the sensor can and the software translates it down to something displayable on the screen. Voila! You can see IR.
You can spend 40 bucks and wear this setup on your face:

Hehe, that would be such an 80's thing to do, to be fair. I remember this sort of thing when I was a child, things like this (http://www.amazon.com/Rainbow-Symphony-Diffraction-Glass-Decoder/dp/B00KVVGUB6). I have vague memories of playing with them.

Idk what you were looking at but this isn't a flashlight
