The Invisible String
The Invisible String | Patrice Karst
5 posts | 3 read
A steady best-seller and The Invisible String is reaching all over the World! OVER 400,000 copies sold! "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. 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 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 and reminding children (and adults!) that when we are loved beyond anything we can imagine. "People who love each other are always connected by a very special 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." Thus begins this heart-warming and reassuring story that addresses the issue of "separation anxiety" (otherwise known as the sense of existential 'aloneness') to children of all ages. Specifically written to address children's fear of being apart from the ones they love, The Invisible String delivers a particularly compelling message in today's uncertain times that though we may be separated from the ones we care for, whether through anger, or distance or even death, love is the unending connection that binds us all, and, by extension, ultimately binds every person on the planet to everyone else. Parents and children everywhere who are looking for reassurance and reaffirmation of the transcendent power of love, to bind, connect and comfort us through those inevitable times when life challenges us! Let's tell the whole world that we are ALL connected by Invisible Strings! Adopted by Military Library Services & Foster Care Agencies Recommended by Bereavement Support Groups and Hospice Centers

This week we suddenly lost my husband‘s father. It‘s a devastating blow to our family, but also because of the bonds and connections he created we have the support system in place to get us through. My friend‘s sister (a child psychiatrist) recommended these books for our boys. They are so lucky (as all of us are) to have had the 7 years they had with him. We will work to honor his memory and keep him alive in our hearts.

Librarybelle So sorry for your loss 1y

This is a great book for helping young children learn to understand and cope with separation anxiety. It explains how being apart from someone does not mean we are not still connected to that person. It's a great tool for kids who are dealing with loss. It makes the conversation a lot easier. #childrensbook #separationanxiety #copingwithloss #patricekarst #joannelewvriethoff #theraputicbook

Mom sent me this book for Valentine‘s Day and somehow I only just read it, but it was the perfect time. I was supposed to be going to visit her and my brother for my birthday week, but with COVID spiking again we decided to postpone. I miss them so much. But this book perfectly articulates how everyone who loves each other remains connected, no matter the distance. 💙

Great explanation of how love connects us through separation. All separation (even the seeming permanence of separation by physical distance or death) is temporary and does not diminish connection. The analogy of the invisible string makes this topic accessible to children of all ages.
