An Invisible Thread by Laura Schroff Book Summary

This 10th anniversary edition of the beloved #1 New York Times bestseller includes a new introduction and afterword by the author. Chronicling the lifelong friendship between a busy sales executive and a disadvantaged young boy that began with one small gesture of kindness, this is a “ray of hope for a better future, as well as an assurance that love is a stronger force than injustice and inequality” (Sybrina Fulton, mother of Travyon Martin and coauthor of Rest in Power: The Enduring Life of Trayvon Martin).

Stopping was never part of the plan...

She was a successful ad sales rep in Manhattan. He was a homeless, eleven-year-old panhandler on the street. He asked for spare change; she kept walking. But then something stopped her in her tracks, and she went back. And she continued to go back, again and again. They met up nearly every week for years and built an unexpected, life-changing friendship that has today spanned almost three decades.

Whatever made me notice him on that street corner so many years ago is clearly something that cannot be extinguished, no matter how relentless the forces aligned against it. Some may call it spirit. Some may call it heart. It drew me to him, as if we were bound by some invisible, unbreakable thread. And whatever it is, it binds us still.​

Now with new material that brings the life-changing story up to date for its tenth anniversary, An Invisible Thread is “a book capable of restoring our faith in each other and in the very idea that maybe everything is going to be okay after all” (Catherine Ryan Hyde, author of Pay It Forward).

An invisible thread.. Simply phenomenal! I have no other word to describe it besides phenomenal. I saw an interview on the Fox News show , Hannity, only a few short days ago and instantly knew I had to hear more, i needed the the entire story. This remarkably phenomenal book had me incredibly invested in their relationship and I was truly hooked and moved. I smiled, laughed and hysterically cried (numerous times), I became more and more emotionally invested page after page. It was a moving story that had me thinking long and hard about my own life. Admittedly, I even became envious, in an unexplainable way, of how wonderful and fulfilling it must have been for both Maurice and Laurie to live this friendship first hand. And for us, the readers, well i for one feel lucky to have read and to learned from it. Thank you for sharing, Laurie and Maurice. I rate this book with infinite stars. It was just, well, phenomenal! Kim K.

Amazing. This book is incredible! It’s incredibly moving to see how although someone may seem different your worlds are more parallel than you could’ve even imagined. I read this book in 3 days and I hope everyone gets a chance to read it. This story is one that will stick with me forever.

Awesome read. I loved this book. Once I started I could not stop. Thanks to Laurie and Maurice for sharing such a heartwarming and caring story of their lives.

Very moving. I enjoyed thing very moving story. It makes me stop and think about my life and the blessings I have and often take for granted. What a special relationship you two created and how fortunate to have found each other. The book is a simple read - easy to complete in a weekend. Worth it. Thanks for sharing.

Invisible thread. What a wonderful and inspiring book. I had trouble putting it down. It inspired me as a teacher and as a parent.

Outstanding. Such a wonderful read!

The Indivisible Thread. This was a wonderful book. I felt I was with the writer along with her on story of her life day by day. I do believe that we are destined by the Lord or The Greater Spirit to meet certain person in our Life Time! It has happened to Me in My Life... An invisible thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place and circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle. But it will never break. Ancient Chinese Proverb Phyllis Anne Trulock Thank You, Laura Schroff & Maurice

An Invisible Tread. One of the best books I have read. An incredible story about being humanistic.....If we just take the time to be compassionate with others, we can make a huge difference in other people's lives.

Wonderful,inspiring.. This is a must read. I have read this twice now & will read it again. I rank this up there with Tuesdays with Morrie, the Blind Side & the Nine Lessons. Very moving.

Captivating book. What a wonderful book! Thank you Laura for sharing your story with the world!

LOVE IT!!!ITS AMAZING. I definitely recommend this book to hard core readers who need a touching story. I couldn't put it down!! This book shows the journey of two souls finding each other when they need the other the most. It's a great book!! God is Good🙏🏼

An Invisible Thread. This a heart warming, bittersweet true story of an unlikely friendship. I couldn't put it down. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good read. Reminds you that there are truly good people out there.

Amazing book. Touching history .. An example to be followed. This book taught me a lot. How to be strong and not give up while helping somebody. I do volunteer work In Brazil and it is not always easy to keep it in a long term basis, personal plans always come in the way and sometimes we feel discouraged, but reading Laurie history made me really confident.

An invisible thread. Amazing story. So touching and beautiful. Highly recommend! Have Kleenex on hand! Tear jerker.

An Invisible Thread. One of the most moving stories I have ever read. I could not put this book down. Thank God for those people who don’t just keep walking past and who care enough to make a difference in the lives of others.

Faith. Wonderful story of trust and courage!

An Invisible Thread. A beautiful story of love, compassion, and humanity. I couldn't put this book down.

Amazing!. I was unable to put this book down and finished it in a day. This is a heartwarming book that makes you laugh, cry and be appreciative of life.

Great read. Very interesting book which has no trouble keeping your attention. Great story and good outcome.

An Invisible Thread. This story was really heat lifting and embracing me the reader.

Very touching!. A very touching story about how a chance 'meeting' touched and altered 2 lives of 2 very wonderful people. Not many have the courage to do what Laurie did both befriending Maurice and talking about her difficult childhood growing up. A must read!

An Invisible Thread. A story that will stay with me. It reminds me of two friendships in my life, quite different in nature, but destined to happen and be connected together just the same. Years ago, I described one of my friendships as being connected by a 'big fat rope' (and it still is to this day). And last year I described the second friendship as 'always connected, regardless of time or circumstance', and I feel it will be so always. The book and positive message of the people in it are a testament to the spiritual good in this complicated world.

An Invisible Thread. Wonderful story. Not well written. Skimmed last pages.

An Invisible Thread. This is a beautiful, powerful and inspirational read! Thanks for sharing your journey!

An invisible Thread. One word: Fabulous!

A Heart Warmer. A very warm and touching story. What a wonderful woman Laurie is and how remarkable is her relationship with Maurice. I feel like I know both of their families and would like to be their friends.

An invisible thread. This book was fabulous. I wasn't expecting a great deal because nonfiction books that have a great story are hard to find. This book was an exception beyond belief. Just a few pages in and I was hooked, it is not only a moving story but a beautiful love story between great friends. Thank you so very much.

Love love love. LOVE this book!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!

An. Invisible Thread. One of the best books I have ever read!! We need more people in the world like Laurie & Maurice. What an inspiration they are. Wanda Barcomb

An Invisible Thread. What a heart touching story this turned out to be. God doesn't always give you what you want but he always gives you what you need and these two people needed each other. Loved the pictures at the end also

Invisible thread. Touching and easy read! Love true stories!

Human kindness at it's best!!. I could not put this book down. It took me 2 days to read it was just that good! These two individuals were destined to meet. God allowed them to get exactly what each one wanted out of life. She wanted a child and he wanted a mom. I love how their relationship formed this incredible bond. An amazing story.

Best book I've read in a really long time!!. I couldn't put it down and read it in two nights!

Heart string. This book has caused me to look at life in a different way. God has truly blessed me with a wonderful life; however that life is not for me to just sit and be satisfied but to use it to impact another! I appreciate the journey that Laura and Maurice took me on. Parts of the journey were not fun because I had to really look at myself and reflect on the "Maurice's" that had crossed my path but I failed to notice. I am encouraged going forward on this journey that I will keep my eyes and heart open for those that God has place in my life for such a time as this.

One of the best. Read this on a cross country flight an was absolutely absorbed. Tried, unsuccessfully, not to cry at one point. Will be recommending this to everyone I know.

An invisible Thread. I could not stop turning the pages,.,my tears flowed through each page. From my own life I know the power and beauty of touching lives..I know pain and loss and Laura Shroff said it all exactly the way it is. What an amazing woman,,the greatest gift in life is touching someone's life..give them hope and love and she did that for Maurice who was so hungry and needy and most of all accepting and so anxious to better his life. It has been a very long time since I read such a wonderful book..each word hugged my soul. Arlene Ben-Zur

An Invisible Thread. One of the best books on surviving really difficult childhoods I've read. The message our society should be getting is that children are deeply wounded and traumatized by alcohol and drug fueled adults who should be protecting them. This book would be an excellent tool for teachers and counsellors in the fight against alcohol and drug abuse from a child's perspective. Rarely do we see this carnage through a child's eyes. Marjch
