Close Encounters of a Third World Kind, by Jennifer J. Stewart (Holiday House, 2004).Twelve year old Annie Ferris is hauled off, along with her mother and younger sister, to a remote Himalayan country by her father, to spend two months on a medical mission.
There she meets Nirmala, a local girl, and experiences (first-hand) yak cheese and why you should never take a shortcut.
A funny story of family, friendship, and culture shock.
