Alex and the High Ridge (Paperback)

Paperback. High above the tree line, mistakes don't fade quietly.When thirteen-year-old Alex sets out along a mountain ridge trail, she expects challenge-but not how exposed the land will feel once the trees fall away. Wind presses harder. Paths narrow. Every step asks for attention.As weather shifts and footing becomes uncertain, Alex must decide how far to go-and when continuing forward stops being the brave choice.Alex and the High Ridge is a thoughtful middle-grade adventure about observation, limits, and learning when turning back is a form of strength. Grounded in realism and set in open, rugged terrain, this story follows a capable but still-learning young hiker as she navigates risk, responsibility, and perspective in the natural world.Perfect for readers ages 10-12 who enjoy quiet survival stories, nature-based adventures, and characters who grow through experience rather than heroics.Part of the Alex and the Wild Paths series, where each book explores a new environment-and a new kind of challenge.
