NORTH STAR, THE

"I liked that he didn't give up and followed his dreams." "I liked the animals." Children talked about what they would want to learn or do, and one boy said he wouldn't give up at school when math or something is too hard. "It shows that if you keep going, you can do anything you want!" They all seemed to get the powerful message of the story - to follow your dreams and keep trying.

In true Weston Woods style, this beautifully produced animated short is faithful to the book by Peter H. Reynolds. The animation is based on the original images and places the words to the story at the bottom of the page, in large easy-to-read letters so that early readers can start developing their reading skills. In this story, Reynolds inspires learners of all ages to navigate their full potential and follow their dreams. A powerful message for young children -- believe in your dreams and follow them until they come true. Narrated by Tim Curry, with a score by Tony Lechner, it includes an author's commentary track and bonus interview with the author. The DVD also comes with a classroom guide. Lovely.

In this classic storybook about lifelong learning, The North Star inspires learners of all ages to navigate their full potential and follow their dreams.
