Description

Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Rockies brings Nuptse and Lhotse back for another marvellous adventure! Welcome to the Canadian Rockies, a place where bears prowl around valleys and glacier blue lakes.

When Mrs. Jasper, a very large grizzly bear, loses her twin cubs, Yoho and Kootenay, between Paradise Valley and The Valley of the Ten Peaks, she needs the help of Nuptse and Lhotse to find them.

In a land full of mountains that could be somewhere near Banff and Jasper National Parks, the cats and Mrs. Jasper will need to follow clues and use their imagination to discover where these cubs have gone.

As they journey through this world-famous landscape, the cats will learn what makes the mountain lakes turquoise, what the fastest way to get down a couloir is, what not to do when you are in a canoe, how to cross an icefield, who belongs in these national parks, and why bringing your most favourite thing on an adventure might just save the day.

Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Rockies is a colourful, illustrated story for adventurers aged 6-9 and for readers of all ages who dream of playing in high-up places.

About the Author

Jocey Asnong was raised by a pack of wild pencil crayons in a house made out of paper and stories. After finishing several years of illustration school at Sheridan College, she left the land of maple trees in Ontario and moved to the mountains of Alberta so she could wear mittens most of the year. When she is not chasing her cats around her art cave in Canmore, she might be caught in a blizzard near Mount Everest, or running away from wolf dogs in Mongolia, or peeking out castle windows in Scotland, or sleeping under the stars in Bolivia. Jocey's illustrations can be found in all kinds of unusual places, as well as in the picture books Mushkid, The Princess and the Cheese, Nuptse and Lhotse in Nepal (winner of a Purple Dragonfly Award), Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Rockies (RMB, 2014), Nuptse and Lhotse Go to Iceland (RMB, 2015), Rocky Mountain ABCs (RMB, 2016) and Rocky Mountain 123s (RMB, 2017). She lives in Canmore, Alberta.
