Adventures of Charlotte and Henry: Mount Everest: An Early Chapter Book About Mount Everest for Kids Ages 6–9 | STEM & SEL Adventure on the World’s Tallest Mountain

Big Places. Brave Hearts.

What if a glowing book could sweep you away to the highest place on Earth?

When Charlotte and her loyal pup Henry discover a mysterious glowing book beneath the couch cushion, they are whisked high into the Himalayas—to Mount Everest.

Written at a Grade 2 reading level, this is a true first chapter book designed for early independent readers.

There, they encounter towering peaks, icy trails, and real mountain explorers who show Charlotte that bravery isn’t the absence of fear—it’s choosing to keep going anyway.

Told in lyrical, accessible prose with short chapters and striking black-and-white illustrations, Adventures of Charlotte and Henry: Mount Everest bridges the gap between picture books and traditional chapter books—making it the perfect next step for growing readers.
