Life is busy. We hurry to get to work, pick up the kids from school, get groceries and do errands. In our constant hurry we rarely see the people around us. Just think of all the people you pass on the street who don’t have homes or schools, or errands to run – who look and live nothing like you do. How would your life change if you stopped and looked at the people you usually rush past? This is the story of Laura, an advertising executive and one of the authors of this book, and an eleven-year-old boy named Maurice. It’s about how their unlikely friendship challenged and changed their lives. It’s the story of what can happen if you raise your eyes from the pavement and look at the people walking it. In these blinks, you’ll discover why lunch in a brown paper bag says that someone cares about you; how a holiday recital changed Maurice’s view on parenting; and why having a huge dinner table epitomized Maurice’s ambitions in life. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ summary, summaries, kindle, ebook, ebooks, highlights, key concepts, An Invisible Thread, Laura Schroff
