Junko's climb / written by Elyssa Gavin ; illustrated by HifuMiyo.
In the spring of 1975, fourteen climbers from the Ladies Climbing Club in Japan begin their ascent up Mount Everest. Junko Tabei, a mountain climbing pioneer and founder of the group, faces many hardships as she leads them: frigid temperatures, an avalanche, injuries, altitude sickness, and a death-defying ice ridge crossing. Yet she perseveres. and when she reaches the summit of Mount Everest, she becomes the first woman--and the 36th person--to do so!
