I Don't Do Mountains by Barbara Henderson

Bookworm Kenzie can't believe her bad luck when her teacher announces plans for a three-day hillwalking expedition into the Cairngorms. She tries everything to get out of the trip, but soon the group heads to the hills with mountain leader Bairdy and set up camp for the night.

‘Henderson’s eco-adventure kept me turning the

pages faster and fasterJust when I thought the stakes couldn’t get any higher, they did! A brilliant story with all the right ingredients; believable but flawed characters, left to fend alone on a wild mountain, wildlife criminals that will stop at nothing, and of course, a loyal dog to help them. After reading I Don’t Do Mountains you’ll find yourself stomping up the nearest hill, looking for adventure too.’ Gill Lewis, Author

‘What a fun read! It reminds me of the books I read in my childhood where I loved the lack of adult involvement and appreciated the child led stories.’ Judy Duncan, Teacher

‘Barbara Henderson tells an engaging tale of how experiences in nature can change not only how young people feel about the environment, but also about their relationships and ultimately themselves.’ Alan Hepburn, Scotland – The Big Picture
