"In the trademark Simon style, carefully selected color photos, drawings, and a clear and informative text tell the story of Earth's mountains: their formation, relative sizes, ecology, and influence on weather....Simon may have done more than any other living author to help us understand and appreciate the beauty of our planet and our universe;

Camping, skiing, hiking ... There’s so much to do when you visit the mountains!

Spend a day in the mountains, exploring new places and enjoying the incredible sights! You can hike, go camping or climbing, you can see the amazing wildlife or, depending on the weather, swim or even play in the snow!

The Mountain is a beautiful visual journey for young children, all about the joy of being outside in nature. Let’s go on an adventure!
