Sam couldn’t believe it! She was the first female ever to climb Mount Everest! Joy raced up from her feet all
the way to her head as she realised that she had actually done it! She was so delighted she literally jumped for
joy! Nothing could ruin this moment!
Unfortunately, something ruined it. When Sam had finished jumping, she felt something breathing on her
shoulder - something gigantic, cruel and evil! She turned around, and she realised that it was an abominable
snowman! She couldn’t believe it! The book had been right after all! She should have read about it in the
book, but now she was relying on the penguins!
It was your average abominable snowman. He was so hairy Sam wondered where his flesh started and his
hair stopped. His teeth were as sharp as daggers, and they looked like they meant business. He was drooling,
so Sam guessed that he was looking forward to having a nice meal. It was still so cold that the drool was
freezing in midair, but all Sam could feel was fear. Before the snowman could even attack, the penguins tied
him up and threw him off the cliff. They clearly had experience. The exhausted climbers immediately
started running down the cliff. When that took too long, they slid down to the bottom. They had done it!
They had climbed Mount Everest and together they would reach Europe!
