About This Book
Reach for this book when your child expresses a desire for more independence, starts planning backyard adventures, or feels a bit anxious about being in unfamiliar places. It is the perfect antidote to 'screen-time slump,' offering a bridge between historical curiosity and real-world autonomy. Through the lens of navigation, the book empowers children to see themselves as capable explorers who can read the world around them. Hans Aschim takes readers on a journey from ancient Polynesian wayfinding to modern GPS technology, blending fascinating history with practical STEM activities. Beyond just learning directions, the book fosters a deep sense of self-confidence and wonder. It is ideal for middle-grade readers (ages 8-12) who are ready to transition from passive learners to active participants in their own outdoor experiences, teaching them that getting lost is just the first step in finding your way.
