The book, The Backpacking Trip, by Mitch Lee, is about a boy named Adam who earns his brother's respect while backpacking. In the beginning of the story, Adam's brother, Kyle, teased and picked on him because he thought Adam couldn't do anything right. Then, their family went on a backpacking trip in the mountains and everything changed- but we can't tell you how, or it will ruin the story for you!

There are several reasons why we would recommend this book. First of all, it takes place in the mountains. Mountains are good settings for stories because there are interesting animals and plants. In addition, people might enjoy this book because of the way the author used good, descriptive vocabulary. We were able to picture the story as we read. Finally, people can relate to the conflict in the story. Most people have been picked on at some point in their lives. All in all, we would recommend that you read The Backpacking Trip.
