Granddad Cassidy and the Everest Expedition

When a frosty Saturday morning blankets the park, Granddad Cassidy has a bold new plan: to scale the frozen heights of the old abandoned snow quarry in the footsteps of Edmund Hillary!

Bundled up in puffer coats, hoodies, double socks, gloves, and trusty commando hats, the boys haul sleds of supplies and set off with Granddad’s rope, mountain-bike helmets, facemasks, binoculars, and compass. With Bovril, corned beef sandwiches, and Kendal mint cake packed safely for energy, the trio climbs, scrambles, and slides up the icy slopes.

Along the way, they brave blizzards, icy ledges, and slippery rocks, rescue their supplies from mischievous snowdrifts, and return safely just in time for the football final score! Packed with humour, heart, and snowy adventure, this story captures the excitement of exploration, problem-solving, and family fun.

Perfect for children aged 4–7 who love imaginative adventure, winter fun, and clever, daring Granddads, Granddad Cassidy and the Everest Expedition is a magical, rhyming tale that will leave young readers laughing, gasping, and dreaming of their own expeditions.
