Mark's like any other thirteen-year-old. He loves his dog, taking photos and hiking - but he also has cancer. When his illness returns, Mark decides he's had enough of hospital. With his small dog Beau, he sets out to climb a mountain - and he's not going to give up until he's done it.

It's quite a sad story but is very good. I recommend this to anyone who has experienced or has a life-changing health issue (like diabetes, cancer, etc) as the protagonist of the book has cancer.

This book is amazing!!!!! It is about Mark ,who has cancer. When his illness gets really bad he decides he has enough of the hospital and treatments so Mark runs away. He only has his dog with him and goes all the way to Mount Rainer.I would say it is aged 10+ because it might be hard for people younger to understand and there is one part in the book when people hurt Mark. It is for people who love dogs and are not squeamish.
