Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Rockies

By Jocey Asnong

Book Overview

Paperback illustrated adventure sends Nuptse and Lhotse across the Canadian Rockies to help a grizzly bear find her missing cubs.

Mrs. Jasper has lost her twin cubs, Yoho and Kootenay, somewhere between Paradise Valley and the Valley of the Ten Peaks. Nuptse and Lhotse join the search, following clues through a mountain landscape inspired by Banff and Jasper national parks.

As the cats travel with Mrs. Jasper, the story introduces young readers to turquoise mountain lakes, glaciers, couloirs, canoeing, icefields and the wildlife that belongs in the national parks. Jocey Asnong uses the search for the cubs to combine geography and outdoor knowledge with humour, imagination and adventure.

This paperback edition offers a flexible format for shared reading, children's travel collections and Canadian Rockies gift displays, school libraries and regional children's collections.
