I need a copy of this for my own shelves. ( )

This book focuses on the journey through life. It helps children to realize the importance of following their dreams, and what that may look like. It also encourages the reader to not always follow the same path as their peers.

A commercial effort, an 'instant classic' that non-readers will be giving out to other non-readers for high-school graduation. Nice enough, but not necessary or even distinguished. What's wrong with all the other books on the theme, like [b:Oh, the Places You'll Go!|191139|Oh, the Places You'll Go!|Dr. Seuss|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1333578883s/191139.jpg|2125304] and even [b:Where the Wild Things Are|19543|Where the Wild Things Are|Maurice Sendak|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327878051s/19543.jpg|3020535]?

Share with me a journey that is actually worth taking, rather than a new story too long for tots and too simple for anyone older than 5. ( )

I liked this book, The North Star for a few reasons. First, I liked the illustrations. They were very well done and fit the story. I also liked, the message, that everyone is on their own journey and they all are different. I also liked that the story line can really connect with the reader, in a sense to get the reader thinking deeper and looking into themselves.

A sweet children’s book about finding your way in the world. It reminded me a bit of Alice in Wonderland, following a rabbit and a cat that appears to help you along your way. It’s nothing earth shattering, but the illustrations are well done and the message is good. Everyone is on a journey, though those journeys are all different. ( )
