"A wonderful storybook for children experiencing separation anxiety."―Today's Parent
"It’s the most beautiful, beautiful book, and it actually makes me cry every time."―Sara Haines, ABC’s The View
“Unravel some of the complexities of grief for young children with this bestselling book.”―CNN Underscored
"Delivers a particularly compelling message in today's uncertain times that though we may be separated from the ones we care for, love is the unending connection that binds us all."―The American Academy of Pediatrics
"[Promotes] a vision of global unity and empathy...effective."
―Kirkus
"Whether kids are having separation anxiety or dealing with divorce or even death, this sweet story is very reassuring."
―Motherly
"Children of all ages (and yes, adults too!) feel a great sense of peace and joy realizing that we are all connected to the ones we love through The Invisible String."―The National Association of School Psychologists
"The message of The Invisible String resonates with children and adults alike.... The two ends of the treasured Invisible String are families and schools. This String, reinforced on each side, buoys students with love, guidance, direction. But when one end weakens, the entire String falters.... When we need support, reassurance, or simply a kindred spirit, just give the String a tug and someone will tug back. This is powerful, and will keep your child on track through...his or her education journey."―Carmen Fariña, former Chancellor, NYC Department of Education

5.0 out of 5 stars First grade class loved it!
The Invisible String is a beautifully written and heartfelt book that teaches children (and adults) about the unbreakable connections we share with the people we love, even when we are apart. The story provides a comforting and reassuring message, making it perfect for children who experience separation anxiety, loss, or simply need a reminder that love transcends distance.I recently read this book to my daughter’s class for her birthday, and it was an absolute hit! The children were engaged and excited to share their own “invisible strings,” creating a wonderful discussion about love and connection. The message resonated so deeply that I gifted the book to the teacher, who loved it so much that she plans to read it to her students every year. She even had my daughter sign it as a special keepsake, which made the moment even more meaningful.The illustrations are warm and inviting, perfectly complementing the story’s gentle and uplifting tone. I highly recommend The Invisible String for parents, teachers, and anyone looking for a book that fosters emotional resilience and a sense of security in children. It’s a timeless and invaluable addition to any home or classroom library!
5.0 out of 5 stars The Invisible String -A Beautiful Book with a Powerful Message
This book is such a sweet and comforting read for kids. It’s helped my children understand connection and separation in a meaningful way after a loss in our family. A great gift for families or classrooms.
5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet book!
Love the idea. I bought the book for two young boys 3 and 4 years old who lost their Dad in an automobile accident. I think this book is for older children.
5.0 out of 5 stars Help with grief
I work with children and youth with emotional and/or behavioral challenges, and their families. This book is useful for all ages, and is very helpful when someone is dealing with grief/a loss/bereavement. All clinicians in my team use this book with several clients, and we all like it very much. I purchased it as a gift for those I mentor, as they complete their graduate studies.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Comforting Hug in Book Form
The Invisible String is the kind of book every child should have on their shelf. Whether it’s grief, separation anxiety, or just missing a loved one, this story offers a gentle and beautiful reminder that love keeps us connected—no matter where we are. As a teacher, I’ve read this aloud in class during difficult times, and it always brings comfort, even to adults. The message is universal and timeless. The illustrations are sweet and the language is simple enough for young kids to understand, yet powerful enough to move anyone. Highly, highly recommended.
5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet!
Very sweet story! Both my 6 year old and 4 year old request it often at bedtime.
4.0 out of 5 stars Sweet message
Quality hard back book that touches on loving while being separated. The pictures are simple yet eye catching. Only one page talked about an invisible string to someone no longer alive.
5.0 out of 5 stars The best book for separation anxiety
What a stunning book. Worth every penny. Don’t hesitate. This story is very well written, the art is amazing and the message sticks with your child. Our child has been going through separation anxiety issues and this book addresses the problem in a very sweet, positive and memorable way. Our child has asked to read it every night. Cannot get enough.
