Tintin in Tibet


The Adventures of Tintin: Tintin in Tibet by Hergé

Hi my name is Parker and I’m a 7th grader and love reading non-fiction historical books. I also enjoy playing soccer and hanging out with friends.

The Adventures of Tintin stories are some of my favorite fiction books. They are graphic novels that are based on the main character, Tintin, and his loyal dog Snowy. Tintin is a journalist and detective who always has a new adventure waiting around the corner.

In this story, Tintin in Tibet, Tintin’s friend Chang is on a plane over the mountains of Tibet and the plane crashes in the snowcapped mountains. Even though experienced sherpas have surveyed the scene for any possible survivors, they have found no one. Despite this, Tintin is convinced that his friend is still alive. After flying out to Tibet with his reliable friend Captain Haddock, who is a retired sailor, they hike up the treacherous terrain to search for Chang. Along the way, there are signs of an abominable snowman stealing food and leaving tracks which scares their guides. Every guide but one leaves the scene in fright and when they finally arrive at the crash site they find a cave where the name Chang is written on the rock letting them know that Chang survived the crash.

The rest of the book takes the reader on a journey to find out if they will ever find Chang and if Tintin and his friends will ever live to tell the tale. The humor the author Herge uses keeps the reader laughing throughout the book. I highly recommend this book; it is a great read.

Find it in print here.
