Praise for Book

  • Maya Sherpa, President of Everest Summiteers Association

    "Being a mountainous girl, I have also gone through the same situation and it’s all about patience, positivity and love towards your passion that takes to overcome every steps of life... I assure that no one will later regret buying and reading her inspirational story."

  • Thom Pollard, Climber, Cinematographer & Writer

    “I had tears in my eyes from the outset. The inspiring and transformative journey of a lovable little homeless girl is an inspiration for us all… Musa learns that there are no limits on how far she can go in life. Such a wonderful tale for today’s children, young and old.”

  • Dr. Luanne Freer, Founder of Everest ER

    “An adventurous treat… Musa Masala will take you on a journey… Wongchhu [Sherpa] fought for the underdog and committed his life to serving those less fortunate.  I have a feeling little Musa might, too.”

  • Willie Benegas, International Mountain Guide (Most Ascents of Mount Everest by a Western Climber)

    “This charming story of adventure, self discovery, and new friendships follows the pilgrimage of Musa Masala to the magical, mountainous world of the Khumbu. Whether you have been to the Himalaya or not, don’t hesitate to pick up this book and join Musa on her extraordinary journey.”

  • David Breshears, Climber, Author, Cinematographer, Producer of Everest IMAX, Everest (2014)

    “Musa Masala: Mountain Girl of the Himalaya is inspired in part by the life of my friend Wongchhu Sherpa. This book springs from his idea of doing something for the greater benefit of others. Wongchhu would be pleased to see Musa making her way to Everest Base Camp and learning the lessons he himself learned along the way.”

  • Dr. Paul Auerbach, Author of The Wilderness Medicine Guidebook and Enviromedics

    “This precious tale inspires us to journey together, to always be philanthropic in spirt and action. Exuberance and adventure transform into confidence and accomplishments. We will build this hospital for the amazing, resilient people of Nepal, not just because we loved Wongchhu, but because at some time in our lives, we are all Musa Masala.”
