The Mountains of Tibet by Mordicai Gerstein, published by Harper & Row in 1987, is a lyrical picture book inspired by the Tibetan Book of the Dead, adapted for young readers.

The story follows a Tibetan woodcutter who, at the end of his life, is offered the choice to enter paradise or return to the world of the living and begin a new life. The book has long been praised for introducing children to themes of reincarnation, choice, and the beauty of life in a moving and accessible way.

This is the original Harper & Row hardcover edition and an ex-library copy. Library stamps, date pocket, and markings are present on the endpapers and interior. Boards show edge wear consistent with library use. Interior pages are clean and intact, and the jewel-toned illustrations remain vibrant and appealing.
