managed to blast in the ceiling. You climb up a pile of rubble and start chipping away.
    â€œHelp!” you cry, hoping someone will hear you. If they don’t, you might be stuck here for a long time.

    â€œThat’s easy,” you reply. “If I am the brother of the penguin next to me, and that penguin is not my brother, then the penguin must be my sister.”
    Sensei nods, smiling. “Well done,” he says. “You are clever as well as brave. You both will make wonderful ninjas. We can begin your training immediately.”
    You and Amy high-five again. “All right!”
    â€œThere is one thing I must ask,” Sensei says. “You must keep this training a secret from other penguins. I cannot train others until the Dojo is ready.”
    You and Amy nod solemnly. “We promise, Sensei,” you say together.
    Then you smile at each other. Your adventure in the mountains is over. But a new one is about to begin!

    You walk slowly toward the black puffle.
    â€œHey there,” you say. “How are you?”
    The black puffle stops in its tracks. It turns and stares at you. You hold out your backpack filled with O-berries. “How about a snack?”
    Curious, the black puffle slowly hops toward you and sniffs the backpack. Then its eyes light up and it starts munching on the O-berries.
    â€œCool!” you say. “So, I’m going on an important quest. Want to come with me?”
    The black puffle looks at you, intrigued.
    â€œI’ll pack lots of O-berries for our trip,” you promise.
    That seems to do the trick. The black puffle hops after you. You fill your backpack with more O-berries and continue your journey.
    Before long, you come to a mountain and see that the river flows underneath it. You walk into the mountain cave and are soon plunged into total darkness.
    â€œGrub!” you cry. “I forgot to bring my flashlight.”
    Suddenly, a warm glow fills the passageway, and you see that the black puffle is letting off a fiery flame.
    â€œThanks!” you say gratefully. With the black puffle lighting the way, you move on. As you get farther into the mountain, you hear the sound of rushing water ahead of you.
    When you get closer, you realize that the river has widened into a huge whirlpool. There’s no space to walk around it on your side of the river. You’ve got to get across. But how?
    You look around the cave. Long stalactites are hanging down from the ceiling. You might be able to grab onto them and swing across.
    There’s also a jagged stalagmite on the other side of the whirlpool. You have a rope in your backpack—if you lasso the rock on the other side, you could climb across using the rope.
    If you swing on the stalactites, go to page 56.
    If you use your rope, go to page 67.

    You and Amy change into your climbing boots and begin your trek over the mountain. The path up the mountain is covered with snow, but it’s not too steep and you’re able to safely hike to the top.
    â€œWhoa, look at that view,” Amy says, gazing out across the snow-covered valley.
    â€œIt’s beautiful,” you agree. Then you nod toward a nearby boulder. “We should rest before we keep going.”
    â€œI’m pretty thirsty,” Amy says, nodding.
    You open your backpack to get your water canteen and the haiku book that Sensei gave you spills out. It lands on the ground, open to a page. You read the haiku out loud.

    â€œThe view from above
Can reveal many new things.
What is it you see?”
    Â 
    â€œWhoa, that’s cool!” Amy says. “It’s like a special message just for us!”
    You gaze out into the distance. “The haiku seems to be saying that we’ll see something important from up here,” you add. “But what? I just see a lot of snow and more
