High above the golden meadow, a strange sound drifts down from the rocky peaks: "Yoo-hoo-hoo!" Chad the fox has never climbed this high before - but his curiosity is bigger than his fear, and he sets off toward the clouds to find out who's calling.Along the way he meets Gibbs, a plump, cheerful marmot who knows every stone on the mountain and appoints himself Chad's expert guide. The climb is steep, the air turns crisp, and more than once Chad wonders if his fox feet were really made for such high places. But every time he looks back at how far he's come, he finds a little more courage to keep going.This is Book 3 in the Chad the Explorer series - gentle, beautifully told adventures that help children ages 3-7 learn about perseverance, new friendships, and the quiet pride of reaching a goal one step at a time.
