This book provides an in-depth look at Everest, including its culture, history and wildlife. For many of us, this beautiful non-fiction volume will be the closest we come to Mount Everest, the tallest of the peaks in the Himalayan mountains. Richly informative and beautifully illustrated, this is an information text that will appeal to explorers-in-the-making in KS2 classrooms

The book systematically covers different aspects of the history and geography that make Everest so fascinating, including various mountain climbers’ attempts to scale Everest, wildlife living at different altitudes and how scientists accurately measure such an immense mountain. The writers also recognise how Everest has captured imaginations for centuries and the book gives plenty of space to exploring the array of myths and legends surrounding Everest as well as the way it has inspired people to invent, create or achieve in different ways.
