Finally, a compass book that gets the directions right.
Compass diagrams are easy to get wrong — mislabeled parts, backwards directions, even the wrong cardinal points. This book doesn’t take that risk. Every single diagram has been checked, double-checked, and built from scratch to be accurate — because a compass book that teaches the wrong thing isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
By the end of this book, your kid won’t just “kind of get” a compass — they’ll be able to pick one up, take a real bearing, and confidently find their way, no adult help required.
Inside:
• Step-by-step compass reading, explained in plain language kids actually understand
• How to take and follow a real bearing — the exact skill Scouts, hikers, and search-and-rescue teams use
• How to build a working compass from a needle, a magnet, and a bowl of water
• 25+ hands-on games and activities — backyard bearing games, a full treasure hunt challenge, indoor games for car rides and rainy days
• A laugh-out-loud story where kids help track down a lost hiker using the exact skills they just learned (with a very easily distracted search-and-rescue dog along for the ride)
No batteries. No GPS. No confusing diagrams. Just a kid, a compass, and the confidence to actually use it.
Ages 8–12. Perfect for young hikers, Scouts, and anyone who’s ever wondered which way is north — and wants the real answer.
