High in the foothills of the Himalayas, a young Nepalese boy, Lhakpa, and his four loyal yaks ─ Yak, Nak, Zopchok and Zum ─ embark on a perilous journey to find the mythical palace, Shangri-La. On this daring adventure Lhakpa and his yaks will battle the perils of the misty mountains ─ freezing snowstorms and danger prowling in the shadows. And watching from the snow-covered peaks above lurks their greatest challenge of all ─ the legendary Yeti . . .
Written by mountaineer Peter Hillary and illustrated by award-winning artist Ant Sang, this fable of perseverance and the realisation that not everything in life is as it seems is a wonderful read for adventurers of all ages.
