Paul Mason (author), Katy Riddell (illustrator)Published: 17/10/2019
By turns laugh-out-loud funny and unexpectedly moving, The International Yeti Collective sees the bigfoot-ed beasties under threat due to a chance encounter gone horribly wrong. Mason writes with great verve and humour, making this thrilling adventure a warm-hearted winter wonder.
An epic adventure with big feet and an even bigger heart!
Ella is in the Himalayas with her uncle searching for yeti. But what seems like the adventure of a lifetime is cut short when she realizes that these secretive creatures might not want to be found.
Tick knows it's against yeti law to approach humans. So when some arrive on the mountain, why does he find himself peering through the trees to get a closer look?
What Tick doesn't know is that his actions will set off a series of events that threaten the existence of yeti all over the world. What can he do to make things right? Just when all hope seems lost, help comes in the most unexpected form...
