How to Solve a Problem

The Rise (and Falls) of a Rock-Climbing Champion

De: Ashima Shiraishi

Narrado por: Ashima Shiraishi, Holter Graham

From Ashima Shiraishi, one of the world's youngest and most skilled climbers, comes a true story of strength and perseverance - in rock climbing and in life.

To a rock climber, a boulder is called a "problem," and you solve it by climbing to the top. There are twists and turns, falls and scrapes, and obstacles that seem insurmountable until you learn to see the possibilities within them. And then there is the moment of triumph, when there's nothing above you but sky and nothing below but a goal achieved.

Ashima Shiraishi draws on her experience as a world-class climber in this story that challenges listeners to tackle the problems in their own lives and rise to greater heights than they would have ever thought possible.
