My Little Everest

Eleven-year-old Ryan Connor is forced to face his fears in school, and on a canoe trip with his Uncle Martyn. They spend a day together going through Martyn's photographs and stories of his climb up Mount Everest. By sharing his experiences and explaining how he overcame his fears on Mount Everest, Martyn inspires Ryan to stretch himself beyond his own limitations and to pursue his dreams.

Adventurer Dan Culver was among the first Canadians to summit Mt. Everest. This semi-fictional story is illustrated with breathtaking colour photos from his Everest climb.
