It is an incredible story that the author is still trying to verify. It does appear in an ArtScroll book and was also part of the words of Chizuk given by Rabbi Dovid Frischman, a menahel at Yeshiva Darchei Torah, to his talmidim.

Surely if it is in an Artscroll story book it is 100% true, correct, right? No. Firstly, it is in a book by a Hasidic novelist (see author info at Artscroll website). That right away raises questions. And it was allegedly investigated by the Hasidic preacher Reb Fischel Schachter. That doesn’t help its credibility. It is well known, that some people, but especially Hasidim, take liberties with “inspirational stories”, embellishing them, if not creating them entirely from whole cloth.
“It is an incredible story that the author is still trying to verify. ”
I agree, it is incredible. That is, in the original meaning of the word, in-credible (not credible). Too fantastic to be believed.
