Mountaineer Peter Hillary has teamed up with artist Ant Sang and the result is 4 Yaks and a Yeti - a book that see a young Nepalese boy undertake a perilous journey to find the mythical palace, Shangri-La.
Along the way he and his four loyal yaks endure snowstorms and other dangers in the mountains - and are fearful of the legendary Yeti.
The Himalayas are a special place for Peter, who's visited the region over 80 times and is chair of the Himalayan Trust, founded by his father, Sir Edmund.
Ant is an award-winning cartoonist and graphic novelist whose artwork help immerse the reader in the physical and spiritual worlds of the Himalayan people.
