Forever daydreaming—that’s Dev. Sitting in class or watching the clouds from the roof of Kwality Carpets, he floats off to places all over the world and has wonderful, bizarre adventures. Read the fantasies of Daydreamer Dev as he steps into worlds where the totally incredible become totally credible—and more than a little hilarious . . . Daydreamer Dev Crosses the Sahara Dev’s headmaster is sure that he has the ability to go far—if only he controls his daydreaming. But Dev knows that is the only way for him to go far away on fabulous adventures. Escaping his father’s lecture, he stretches out on his favourite rug on the roof of Kwality Carpets. Clouds drift, and Dev drifts too . . . all the way to Timbuktu, where his friend OP is waiting for him. The boys set off on an adventure to cross the Sahara, battling heat, flies, thirst, and camels—sorry, dromedaries—that emit enough greenhouse gases to finish off the ozone layer. Accompanied by a guide, Ibrahim, Dev and OP find that oases are few and far between. Will Ibrahim and amana (trust) help them reach their destination? Or will they be swallowed by the sands of the Sahara?

Sitting in class or watching clouds from the roof of Kwality Carpets, Dev's flights of fancy land him in challenging environments all over the globe. He brings home notes from his teacher so regularly that Amma only rolls her eyes as she fishes them from his satchel. Baba says that if there were medals for daydreaming, Dev would be an All-India Champion-maybe even an Olympic hero. These action-packed stories transport the reader to three iconic locations, each one testing Dev's survival skills while teaching him to respect environments and cultures that seem alien to him. Follow Dev as he accompanies the ghost of a Sherpa woman on a quest to conquer Mount Everest. Ride with Dev as he traces the Amazon River, which proves much more difficult than going with the flow! Join Dev and his pal OP as they set out from Timbuktu to cross the Sahara on malodorous camels. For Dev and his colourful imagination, it's Access All Areas and No Holds Barred.

In 1996, a twenty-three-year-old soldier in the British Army was flying over an African desert on a routine parachute jump. He had a lot to look forward to-a long career ahead of him in the army, a beautiful girlfriend back home. But those dreams were cut short when his parachute failed to open at eleven thousand feet. He had cracked three vertebrae and come within a fraction of severing his spinal cord. A grueling eight months of physical therapy followed. Bear had to retrain his muscles to do all of the things we take for granted-how to sit, stand, walk, even breathe. Eighteen months after his accident he overcame incredible odds to reach the peak of Everest. THE KID WHO CLIMBED EVEREST is a tale of courage and determination. Bear's quest for funding for his expedition, his seventy days on Everest's southeast face, and a narrow brush with death after a fall into a crevasse at nineteen thousand feet, make the story an essential read for anyone who's ever had a dream and made it come true.

In national bestseller The Mountain, world-renowned climber and bestselling author Ed Viesturs and cowriter David Roberts paint a vivid portrait of obsession, dedication, and human achievement in a true love letter to the world’s highest peak. In The Mountain, veteran world-class climber and bestselling author Ed Viesturs—the only American to have climbed all fourteen of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks—trains his sights on Mount Everest in richly detailed accounts of expeditions that are by turns personal, harrowing, deadly, and inspiring. The highest mountain on earth, Everest remains the ultimate goal for serious high-altitude climbers. Viesturs has gone on eleven expeditions to Everest, spending more than two years of his life on the mountain and reaching the summit seven times. No climber today is better poised to survey Everest’s various ascents—both personal and historic. Viesturs sheds light on the fate of Mallory and Irvine, whose 1924 disappearance just 800 feet from the summit remains one of mountaineering’s greatest mysteries, as well as the multiply tragic last days of Rob Hall and Scott Fischer in 1996, the stuff of which Into Thin Air was made. Informed by the experience of one who has truly been there, The Mountain affords a rare glimpse into that place on earth where Heraclitus’s maxim—“Character is destiny”—is proved time and again.

Experience Nepal and climb to Mount Everest through the eyes of Aleksey. The endless forks in the trails were his nemesis and the safety precautions of the climb seemed lost in the wind. Meet locals, climbers and avid travelers along the way. Dive into a world of unique and strange conversations. Join the adventure of self-discovery through humor and personal insights. Because It's There: To Climb Mount Everest is the first book of a series of four. Three more books will follow: Adventures In Tibet, A Walk Across China, and Meeting The People Of Vietnam.A quote from Because It's There: To Climb Mount Everest - "When a traveler let a guidebook dictate their trip, it no longer became an adventure, but simply retraced the steps of someone else. It took away the mystery of the road, the unexpected, and set a standard of high expectations by merely promoting the popular. The romance of the road was then gone."

Released to coincide with the 60th Anniversary of the first ever ascent of Mount Everest and updated with a new introduction from Bear Grylls. On the 29th May 1953 Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made history as they took their first triumphant steps on the top of the world. On 16 May 1998, Bear Grylls followed those same footsteps, achieving a childhood dream and entering the Guinness Book of Records, as the youngest Briton, at 23, to summit Mount Everest. Taken from his bestselling autobiography, Mud, Sweat and Tears, Climbing Everest tells the gripping story of Bear’s gruelling expedition, one which tested him to his very limits and nearly cost him his life.
