A kid-focused history of the world’s highest mountain
Nico Medina’s entry in the Where Is? series traces Mount Everest from its geological origins and early human presence to landmark climbing expeditions and the growth of commercial mountaineering. Set in the Himalayas, the book frames Everest as both a major geographic landmark and a place shaped by Sherpa communities, exploration, and the persistent dangers of high-altitude ascent. Accounts of unsuccessful expeditions and successful summits give the subject a human dimension while keeping the mountain itself at the center. At 112 pages, it offers an accessible introduction to Everest’s history and its place in modern climbing culture.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Kids interested in mountains, maps, and Asian geography
- Young readers curious about exploration and mountaineering history
- Fans of the Where Is? nonfiction series

As the recent deaths of sixteen Sherpas underscore, climbing Mount Everest remains a daunting challenge. Located in the Himalayas, Everest is the highest mountain in the world at a whopping 29,028 feet. In this compelling narrative, Nico Medina guides readers through the mountain's ancient beginnings, first human settlers, historic climbs, and the modern commercialization of mountain-climbing. With stories of expeditions gone wrong and miraculously successful summit climbs, this is a thrilling addition to the Where Is? series!
