Rumi and the Savage Mountain

When the mysterious Messenger arrives bearing magical gifts and the pronouncement that Tayta Siwar--the village holy man and 11-year-old Rumi’s only close friend--will die unless he eats some of Mt. Salcantay’s snowcap, Rumi knows that he and his dog Junior must make the journey.

On their way up the mountain, they face dangers that can only be overcome with the Messenger’s gifts.

But the greatest danger of all proves to be the ancient spirit of Mt. Salcantay himself.
