What are people saying about The String Thing?

This is my favorite new book to read to my great grandkids! Such a great message and beautiful illustrations.

Sandy

Wonderfully written with great illustrations! Yes, it looks like a children’s book, but the message is one that children of all ages and adults need to be reminded of. It is a simple read that opens the door for great discussions on team work, and how everyone has a gift given to them and is needed and important to accomplish a goal.

We love how David incorporates the much needed emotions of faith, hope and love in this story. When they are all present in a task, the unimaginable can happen!

There are other little hidden messages that can be discussed as well. If we, at any age, would be as these children and join in together, so much could be accomplished!

So looking forward to David’s next book!

I am so excited to be able to share this book with my teacher friends and all the little people that I love! It has such a wonderful message of working together to help others! That message translates to adults as well, reminding us to use our own gifts for the good of other people. I can see this story being used in so many ways in classrooms at all levels!

What are your kids reading right now?

We’ve discovered an awesome new kids book that is perfect for these weird & crazy times!

Our long-time family friend and all-around awesome human, David Burrier, just published a children’s book about the power of people coming together to help.

My 5 & 7-year-olds absolutely loved the story, the art work is cute, and the discussion questions at the end really got us talking.

While the book is not overtly Christian, the parallels are there & it opened us up to talking about:

✔️ The importance of writing scripture in your heart, so you can tap into it when you need it
✔️ How Jesus calls us to help others
✔️ That we’re not in this alone
✔️ We’re stronger together

David has a dream of getting this book on the best seller list. If you’re needing a fresh book for your kids or a gift for a friend, please check out The String Thing. We love our String Thing book!

I thought you might like to see Jubee reading your book. It was one of two books she picked out to read before bed tonight. She especially likes the little girls in the story named Faith and Hope.

As teachers, we encourage our students to work together as a team. We help them understand that when challenges arise you can use the strengths of the group to help you overcome even the greatest of obstacles.
That message is shared so well in The String Thing book!  It can help students grasp a deeper understanding around teamwork, hope and love! 

Johnnie, K-5 Technology Teacher

Your children and grandchildren need a copy of David Burrier’s The Sting Thing! Our world is being torn apart by division and self-interest that is having an immense negative impact. The String Thing is a positive, values-driven story that clearly presents the reciprocal power of community and team work. The good you sow into others may be the very thing you need sown back into you. It is a great read and will leave you inspired and encouraged. We are better together!
