Raves. Drugs. Hooliganism. Stockbroking. That was before Jim's dad died. And then he started to see life differently. He began to feel the earth beneath him. He thought back to when he was young - what family meant, how things had somehow changed and what was missing in his life. The North Star is a simple story about what truly matters as we get older. It is a tale of growth, real growth, of finding ourselves through love and identity whilst taking care of that around us. The book's smallness and clarity remind one of Jim Dodge's Fup or Raymond Briggs' Gentleman Jim. But this is a different Jim, of course - one steeped in his love of the land. 'A vivid chronicle of our times dealing with the twin challenges of Covid-19 and threats to our environment, such enormity played out through the personal lives of Jim and Geraldine. How they cope with these life-threatening issues is the subject of this stimulating story' Colin Scott, Treasurer, Positive Images Festival 'The North Star is a moving and very inspiring story about the power of hope, love and community to change the world for the better. I would highly recommend this book' Sally Clark, Divestment Campaigner, Friends of the Earth Scotland ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿Foreword by Clare Farrell, co-founder of Extinction Rebellion
