"Stranded in a Snowstorm" is a thrilling extreme sports, action adventure chapter book for kids 7-12 that teaches lessons of green living and survival. It
takes the reader through a harrowing backpacking trip that puts 12 year old Nico, his baby sitter and friend Hannah, and their mountaineering rescuer Paul

The story highlights how lucky we are to have water flow freely through our faucets at home, the unexpected merits of misbehaving, how important attitude
is in survival (and otherwise), and how the greatest tool we have at our disposal is our mind.
