Find out about the life of rock climbers in this cool new Chapter book, part of an Extreme Adventure strand featuring high-adrenaline stories about real explorers. With gripping--and TRUE--stories of incredible adventures, Rock Stars! takes readers on three amazing journeys of ultimate survival. From New York's Central Park to the towering Himalaya, no peak is too high for these extreme rock climbers! Perfect for all readers who love exciting, real-life, adrenaline-fueled tales that will have you on the edge of your seat. Review: They each loved this book and its short/ true stories - I previously gave my older 2 grandsons Bramucci's" Danger Gang and the Pirates". At 9 and 10 yrs of age they were enthralled and avidly read this book front to back in record time. I particularly appreciated references to Shakespeare, etc. which I believe broadens the children's awareness beyond that of adventure and fiction. When I discovered ROCK STARS, I immediately sent it to all 4 of my grandsons, ages 4 to 10. They each loved this book and its short/ true stories. Three of them are beginning rock climbers so it was even more relevant to them but nonetheless the stories enthralled each. All of us are looking forward to the next of Bramucci's books. Review: Great book! - This is a great book for the kid who is interested in rock climbing or being outdoors. Easy to read and does a good job describing rock climbing terminology.

Super photography and information
Our 6 year old grandson loved it. He enjoys factual stories set in remote or dangerous places so this ticked all the boxes. He can't read it all himself yet but he is enjoying having it read to him and looking at the amazing photographs.
