Editorial Review:

Product Description:
“That’s impossible,” said twins Jeremy & Liza after their Mom told them they’re all connected by this thing called an Invisible String.

“What kind of string?” They asked with a puzzled look to which Mom replied, “An Invisible String made of love.”

That’s where the story begins. A story that teaches of the tie that really binds. Moms (and Pops) feel the tug whenever kids give it; and kids feel the tug that comes right back: the Invisible String reaches from heart to heart. Does everybody have an Invisible String? How far does it reach, anyway? Does it ever go away? Read all about it!

THE INVISIBLE STRING is a very simple approach to overcoming the fear of loneliness or separation from parents, with an imaginative flair that children can easily identify with and remember. Here is a warm and delightful lesson teaching young and old that we aren’t ever really alone. It’s a story no one has ever told or heard before. Not surprisingly, it comes from Patrice Karst, whose popular God Made Easy helped thousands learn whose string it really is!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for a gift!
Liked it so much we ordered 2, one to keep in the permanent library at our preschool!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for comforting kids after loss
I highly recommend this book. A friend of mine bought it for my 4 year old son during our first Christmas without Daddy, who we lost to cancer. It was very comforting to my son and to me as well. I also really like the book because it is more about love than separation or loss and it gave my son a comforting way to think about his dad, even though we can't see him or talk to him anymore. It is a wonderful story and I highly recommend it to any parent who needs a way to comfort a child after a ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This book helped my granddaughter.
My granddaughter has been experiencing behavior problems to the point where she was sent to a facility. Her therapist had this book and read it to her. She loved the book so much that she wrote her own story based on its contents. She also begged the therapist to let her have the book but she (the therapist) explained it was her only copy and she needed the book to help other children just like her. When her mother told me how much she wanted this book, I had to purchase it for her. This book ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Introduced to the Book Today and Wanted to Comment!
I was among a group of adults to whom this book was read (so I haven't seen the pictures yet). I started making a list of all the people to whom I wanted to send it--family, friends...all of them over 12 years of age! While I won't be able to afford to buy for the whole list at one time, I think I will start with a few and gradually work my way through it. My thanks to Ms. Karst for the powerful reminder that we are not alone, no matter what we are going through.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - beautifully written
A great book with heaps of emotions. A special one to keep.
