I thought that To The Summit was an excilent book. It really opens your eyes to what you can acomplish if you have the determination and mentalability to put you mind to it. Sarah is a 17 year old girl that has the dream of reaching the summit of Denail and beening the youngest person to clime North Americas highest mountain. I thought that the book was great and would highly recamend it.

It is an excellent book that I enjoyed reading, I am even reading it again. It shows that with determination and a positive attiude, even a 17-year old girl can over come the challenge, both metally and physically of climbing North America's largest mountain. Not only getting stronger phyiscally , Sarah was brought closer to her father, and her life. Once again I have to say 'WOW! '.

As 17 year old Sarah climbs Mt. McKinley, known now as Mt. Denali, in Alaska, she discovers some strengths in herself and becomes closer to her father. Story line is excellent, however the dialog and rhythm of the book is a bit stilted. Very east to the distracted. This book should be of interest to student in the 6th, 7th, and 8th grades who are interested in outdoor adventures.
What an excellent book!

I know I am repetative, but I have to say it again: What an excellent book! Sarah is a very real character. So real that I was mentally exhausted by the end of her climb. This is a must-read book for teens.
