By: PR Leap
(PRLeap.com) Emily's Alaska Adventure: Climbing Denali Mountain, a new book by Denise Saigh, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Denise and Emily are Alaskan mountaineers, bonded by their love of adventure. At ten, Emily dreams of being the youngest Alaskan woman to summit Denali. So, while Denise is away, summitting Denali herself, Emily trains, scaling the smaller hills and mountains surrounding her home. All the while, the duo exchanges letters, documenting their journeys. How will they compare? (You just might be surprised!)
