The object on the cover is known as an Inukshuk. The Inuit of the far North build these from small rocks and then use them as guides/markers to help them find their way in a desolate landscape. To me, this is a perfect symbol for this book because the information in the book is intended to assist people in finding their way on this journey through life. Sometimes the journey can be long and hard and having some small signs left by previous travellers can make things a little clearer and easier.
