Judy Kleiner is tragically confined to a wheelchair. Her older sister, Frumie, is devoted to helping Judy but torn by a need to live a life of her own. When the two sisters are sent to a Jewish boarding school, they grapple with the chains that bind them. Their teacher's dedication to helping Judy leads her to a startling revelation. Witness as these three lives intersect at a dramatic moment, leaving the girls and their caring teacher forever changed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for adults and teens!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"The setting is an Orthodox boarding school for girls in post-war England, and the plot is one that will absorb adolescent girls. Frumie, age thirteen, and her sister, Judy, age eleven, are bound by the invisible chains of the title: Judy's legs are paralyzed and Frumie feels responsible for causing the accident that put her lively sister in a wheelchair. Judy, a particularly well-developed and believable character, demands Frumie's constant attention, while Frumie resents Judy's demands and then feels guilty for doing so. When they are sent to a boarding school for Judy's health, their relationship is noticed and addressed by the wise and kind headmistress. Another teacher also intervenes, and at the book's end Judy is walking. A subplot involving this young teacher, a Holocaust survivor, adds dramatic interest and emphasizes the religious values that permeate the story.\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-- AJL Newsletter, Sep.\/Oct. 2000\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor: Eva Vogiel\u003cbr\u003e Softcover | 6\" x 9\" | 288 pages | ISBN \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9781607631934\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEva Vogiel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJudaica Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFormat\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoftcover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e288\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\" × 9\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLanguage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eISBN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781607631934\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Judaica Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55450380599464,"sku":"ICHS","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0534\/9765\/9560\/files\/9781880582572_c37bade5-162b-4686-ab78-88db025cbc52.jpg?v=1781048475","url":"https:\/\/judaicasquare.com\/products\/invisible-chains","provider":"Judaica Square","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
