Plot:

Compass is about a young boy named Bert and a girl, Amelia. They are best friends and often spend days fishing by the lake. Not always just for fishing, mostly just to spend time together and have fun.

One day, they encounter an older man, Compass who tells them that to catch more fish, they should sing to them.

Thinking he was just a crazy man, they disregard his idea until the next day, out of curiosity, they try singing to the fish and miraculously it worked.

The singing and fishing, brings them closer, yet as often happens with life, they eventually drift apart.

Later in life, Compass's words of wisdom still ring true and they recognise that it's the small moments, that make for a happy life.

A story to warm your insides and hopefully change how you see the world around you.
