Synopsis

Heartfelt and hopeful, Sue Lamoree's THE INVISIBLE THREAD offers middle-grade readers an inspiring look at courage, friendship, and the invisible bonds that hold people and the world together. ~ Rachel O'Hara for IndieReader

Honorable Mention recipient of the Writer's Digest 13th Annual Self-Published E-book Award

Marvin misses his old life—where he had friends, played soccer, and had a father who spent time with him. The one in which a massive wheelchair didn't take center stage.

A year after a crippling accident, Marvin faces the daunting task of starting middle school on his own. To make matters worse, his "best friend" has made it his mission to bully Marvin at the turn of every corner.

When a mysterious girl named Anna enters his life, Marvin realizes he's not alone and is introduced to a world of magic and wonder as she encourages him to have faith in himself and the people around him. But, Anna is struggling with her own challenges, and Marvin must choose between retreating to his safe yet lonely life or allowing the light back in and helping Anna shine again too.

"Readers who loved Katherine Paterson's Bridge to Terabithia will appreciate this story's blend of heartfelt realism and gentle magic, while fans of Carl Hiaasen's Hoot will enjoy its environmental message and compassion for wildlife. Ultimately, Lamoree reminds readers that even in life's hardest moments, love and purpose are never truly lost; they're simply waiting to be rediscovered." ~ Rachel O'Hara for IndieReader
