The Lost Compass: A Lesson in Friendship & Trust

By Daniel LaGarce Jr.

What's waiting just around the bend?

PePaw stands beside his old truck with a small wooden box, and the morning feels still. Inside is polished brass that catches the light - a compass older than anyone can remember, and it's Ollie's for the day.

What follows is a trail through Feather Creek that leads past the library, past Mill Pond, past Rosie's Bakery, and up to an overlook where the whole town spreads out below. Every place has a story. And every story, PePaw says, helps us find our way.

But a compass only works if you're honest about where you are. Before the day is done, Ollie learns that the best directions don't always come from a map - sometimes they come from kindness, courage, and the people willing to walk with you.

The third book in the Feather Creek Adventures series. A warm read-aloud picture book about friendship, trust, and telling the truth, for children ages 4 to 8.
