"Hurrah!" shouted George, "At last it is you. I've been looking so hard for the Yeti." The monster looked down with a horrible howl . . . "Are you bonkers? My name is Netty!" Join George, a young and courageous explorer with all the pluck of a little Indiana Jones, on a quest to track down the elusive Yeti against all the odds. With only a map, a woolly hat and a tin of spaghetti in his rucksack, George sets off on his journey up the steep mountain path . . . and spots the Yeti immediately!
