Peak is a 2007 young adult fiction novel by Roland Smith about the physical and emotional challenges that a fourteen-year-old faces as he climbs Mount Everest, as well as tall buildings in New York City after moving from Wyoming. [1]
Peak won the 2007 National Outdoor Book Award (Children's Category). [2] It received a starred review from Publishers Weekly . [3] Kirkus Reviews wrote, "The narrative offers enough of a bumpy ride to satisfy thrill seekers, while Peak’s softer reflective quality lends depth and some—but not too much—emotional resonance".
