Description

In this relatable and reassuring contemporary classic, a mother tells her two children that they're all connected by an invisible string. "That's impossible!" the children insist, but still they want to know more: "What kind of string?" The answer is the simple truth that binds us all: An Invisible String made of love. Even though you can't see it with your eyes, you can feel it deep in your heart, and know that you are always connected to the ones you love. Does everybody have an Invisible String? How far does it reach? Does it ever go away? This heartwarming picture book for all ages explores questions about the intangible yet unbreakable connections between us, and opens up deeper conversations about love. The Invisible String offers a very simple approach to overcoming loneliness, separation, or loss with an imaginative twist that children easily understand and embrace, and delivers a particularly compelling message in today's uncertain times.

Wonderful tool and story!

I use this story frequently in my therapy office for separation, it’s a well written story to organize a parent’s love for a child goes beyond the home and no matter where they are, that they’re connected.

Wonderful Book

Wonderful book! My daughter ((7yrs)) has had some seperation anxiety that popped up kind of "randomly" to us. She loved this book and we've read it often since buying. It does mention "Heaven" one time on one page. This was personally fine for our beliefs - but she mentions in the back letter from the author that you can switch the word out for whatever your belief system would refer, or skip the page all together since it won't change the story emphasis. I know that could be an issue for some and felt it worth mentioning.

So sweet

Such a sweet story. Would be a good read for children who have lost a loved one or kids with separation anxiety.

Beautiful illustrations

This book as a wonderful message. My daughter was having a difficult time with drop off at preschool. I bought this book to help her understand that we'd be back to get her. The pictures are beautiful. The concept is a bit hard for her to grasp, as she thinks their is a real string. However, as she gets older this book will bring her more and more meaning. It is also a great book when a family member or friend passes away.
