Hello and welcome. Today is my stop on the blog tour for a wonderful new book, The International Yeti Collective, written by Paul Mason and illustrated by Katy Riddell.  I have my review of the book, and also an autobiographical excerpt from the author.

We’re stronger together than apart. Particularly at times like this, when danger lands at our feet. Ella is on a yeti-hunting expedition in the Himalayas with her uncle Jack, a celebrity explorer. She’s expecting an amazing trip, but nothing more. Everyone knows that yeti don’t exist. Tick is a young yeti who can’t help but ask questions. What is beyond the mountain he calls home? Are humans really as bad as everyone says they are? When Tick’s curiosity sets off a chain of events that threatens the entire yeti community, Ella is swept up in the adventure. Can the unlikely pair work together to protect the yeti before it’s too late? They’re going to need help. Help from The International Yeti Collective.

There is so much that I loved about …
