i was actually thinking as there official name isnt the northern lights maybe the americans or some americans wouldnt use that particular term.
ALSO the others are all objects that are of great importance to the plot..whilst i get the golden compass thing it isnt as suitable to the book as the other titles are to thei respective stories

In fact, for those who are interested and live in the US, a dramatization of Pullman's The Ruby in the Smoke (the first of the Sally Lockhart books, if memory serves me) is going to be shown on PBS early next month.
Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, it will be on Masterpiece Theater, Sunday, February 4th.
I'm looking forward to it.
