It is often said that life is a journey, and it’s true. But sometimes it’s hard to know which path to follow when signs point in so many directions. In this beautifully illustrated book, Peter H. Reynolds once again encourages readers to observe, to wonder, and to consider diverging from the well-worn path — to pursue their dreams. Originally published more than ten years ago, THE NORTH STAR has had a profound effect on its many readers. This edition, featuring all new art, celebrates the book’s own voyage connecting people around the world. It has inspired classroom activities, a musical, and countless thoughtful journeys.

一阵轻柔的风吹过，一个小男孩醒来开始了旅程。他慢慢会爬，会站，会走，会跑。他一边漫步，一边探索和感受新鲜的世界。有时候他转个圈、跳个舞，还会歇一歇，睡上一会儿。有一天，一只兔子从他身边匆匆跑过。他追兔子到一条路口，碰到一只猫。猫催他开始旅程。小男孩沿着兔子跑走的那条路开始往前走，慢慢迷了路。有次为了追橡树叶，他离开了那条路，而猫又出现催他走回了那条路。最后他陷入沼泽，迷失了方向。沼泽中一只鸟儿的提示，让小男孩发现了给他指路的星星。在跟随星星走出沼泽地的过程中，一只青蛙让他明白了每个人都有各自不同的旅程，不同的路标，不同的星星。走出沼泽后，他救了之前那只急匆匆赶路的兔子。最后，小男孩走上了属于自己的旅程。
