Before the arguments. Before the pressure. Before anyone told him what to think or who to be - Kuba had a compass.
He just didn't know it yet.
In this first book of the Kuba and the True North Compass series, ten year old Kuba makes a small honest choice in an ordinary kitchen and feels something he has never felt before. Something quiet and solid that doesn't move no matter what's happening around it.
That night he dreams of a ship on open water. At the helm is a brass compass pointing true north. And waiting on the shore at the end of a rough and beautiful voyage is a place called the Land of the Bears - a community of capable, honest, hardworking bears who build real things, tell true stories, and have one thing in common. They all followed their compass to get there.
This is a book about the internal life of a kid who pays attention. About the difference between what's true and what's convenient. About the quiet knowing that exists in every child underneath all the noise - and what becomes possible when a kid learns to trust it.
No magic powers. No chosen one. Just a boy, a compass, and the first steps of a journey that will take him through rough water toward something real.

The compass was always yours. This book helps you find it.
