"All the world's a storm. We all get lost sometimes. We look for mountains in the clouds to make it all seem like it's worth it, like it means something. And sometimes we see them. And we keep going." The Honest Truth, Dan Gemeinhart.
It is about a 12-year-old boy, Mark who ran away from home - from his overprotective parents, his bestfriend and his problems.
He planned to climb a mountain - Mount Reinier, his secret dream shared only with his bestfriend, Jesse and a secret promise he made with his grandfather. He knew he could trust Jesse with his secrets, not telling anyone even though those secrets had made Jesse lived with fear - for Mark's safety and health and from being discovered lying.
What started as a simple planned journey turn out into an adventure of a lifetime where Mark learned about what life is all about - an unconditional love, trust, friendship and accepting the truth about harsh reality.
With only Beau, his dog, as his faithful companion, they faced hardships together along the journey that almost cause their lives. Mark met some people along the way who willingly help them without asking anything about him - the kindness of strangers.
When he reach his destination and start climbing the mountain despite the harsh weather, which almost killed his dog and almost freeze him to death, he realised the truth about all his thinkings - from a sick boy point of view who is afraid of dying. A boy who thought he could face his life alone.
