Storm Mountain, by Tom Birdseye ISBN: 978-0-545-38973-0 c2010 135 pages

Good sections to read aloud: pp. 10-11 where Ty shows Cat his dad’s ashes and tells her his plan

Summary: Ty, Cat’s cousin, shows up unannounced at her house telling her he is going to climb Storm Mountain to spread his dad’s ashes, and that she needs to come with him to spread her dad’s as well (their dad’s were twin brothers, and they died together climbing Storm Mountain two years ago). Cat is completely against the idea, but wakes up the following morning to find Ty gone...and her dad’s ashes! The only thing she can do is go after him...and of course that puts both of them in danger. A quick survival/adventure read!
