Peak Audiobook

" A book worth reading. A compelling story that allows the reader to picture themselves in Peak's place. "

" This book was good if you wanted to kill sime. The story line got boring after a while, but it can shine after a while. Peak Marcello is like a normal kid. Until he climbed a skyscraper to graffiti his mark. He gets caught and is almost sent to jail. His dad appears in court and he is a famous mountain climber. He says he'll take Peak out of the country to live with him. They let him, but instead, he takes Peak to climb Mount Everest. Peak could become the youngest kid to climb it. He meets a buddhist monk, Zopa, and a kid named Sun Jo to help him climb it. Now he must climb the mountain, but can he trust Sun Jo and Zopa. The storyline is boring after a while, but the author does a great job of describing the mountain and good sentence fluency. This book is an okay choice. "

" I really liked the writing style and thought it was a cute story. "

" i think peak is more of a grown-up book. i didn't understand most parts but the parts i did understand i enjoyed. it also taught me i'm never going to climb mt. everest.EVER. "

" It seems like it would be dull but the adventure Peak finds on Mt. Everest is far from. "

" Action packed adventure! Excelent for anyone who enjoys hiking or alpine climing or anyone who finds it to be an interesting topic. The many surprising twists and turns in the story keep you hanging on the edge of yout seat and defy you to pu the book down! "

" This is good young adult fiction. It's not patronizing, and the story takes you across the world and across cultures. The detail is persuasive and the characters are real. Smith evokes the Everest adventure effectively, and while there is an inspiring ending, it is not a completely happy one. "

" This is an amazing tale of sacrifice and friendship "

" This book is amazing for anybody who loves a good adventure book. "

" This book gives a good, basic explanation about the ins and outs of climbing Mt. Everest--that alone makes it thrilling and interesting. I didn't love the set-up for getting to the mountain, it felt pretty far-fetched to me, but I didn't mind it's coming-of-age culmination. "
