SIGNED: Up Up Ever Up! Junko Tabei; A Life in the Mountains
$19.99
Books of Wonder has very few autographed copies left (signed by both Anita and me). Please ask about availability when ordering. If sold out, you can still ask them to ask me to come in and sign.. They ship internationally.
BookCulture is a better option for US domestic orders. I live nearby and I can sign all the orders as they come in. I also sign any other books as well. Please add a note to ask for my autograph at checkout. Also call: (212) 865-1588 or e-mail: [email protected] to inquire.
Junko Tabei dreamed of a life climbing mountains. But men refused to climb with her. Sponsors told her to stay home. And gloves were not made to fit her hands. Eager and unstoppable, Junko wouldn’t let these obstacles get in her way.
Instead, she planned an expedition to summit Mount Everest with an all-women team. Battling icy peaks, deep crevasses, and even an avalanche, Junko refused to give up. She climbed step by step . . . up, up, ever up!
After summiting the world’s tallest peak, Junko took on a new challenge: protecting the wild spaces she loved for future generations.
This gorgeously illustrated celebration of a trailblazing climber who shattered gender stereotypes invites us to dare to reach our dreams—no matter how big.
