He packs a lot into this story of friendship, loyalty, danger, tragedy and love and manages to keep all the elements working. He never lets you stray far from the question of whether you owe a friend unquestioned loyalty when you are conflicted about the path he is taking. An open-ended question leads to an open-ended answer, making this story worthy of discussion between readers of any age. And if you are a dog lover (and even if you aren’t) you will definitely take Beau to your heart. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can you find truth on that mountain? *by C***I on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2018* Mark is dying. Full of anger and bitterness, he leaves home with his dog, Beau. He wants to go to Mt. Rainier, hundreds of miles from his home, to climb to the top. Perhaps for the adventure of a short lifetime? The boy and his dog meet many people during their trip. Not all of them are good. As a matter of fact, some are very bad. But they also meet good people who helped them along the way. This is not a coming of age story. This is the story of an angry, dying boy. He just wants to get away from everybody and die alone on that mountain. There are two important relationships in the story. Between Mark and Beau; and Mark and Jesse. The trip is really about finding what's important. Mark was selfish at the beginning, leaving behind the people who loved him and taking his beloved dog on a dangerous trip. His anger at being sick made him bitter. He continues to feel this way until the very last moment on that mountain when he finally realizes that he wants to live, to see his family again, to get Beau to safety. Mark didn't set out to find truth but he found it on that lonely mountain. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Message of sticking it out through hard times. *by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2021* My son is reading this book with his class during Virtual Learning. He said it is an amazing book with very sad points. The child goes through alot and his friends and family worry. The point of the book is to teach children that there will be struggles and hard times in life, but to never give up. That if you just move forward and not give up things will get better. That is how his teacher explained it to him anyway. 5th grade level --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/22106298-the-honest-truth-scholastic-gold](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/22106298-the-honest-truth-scholastic-gold) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
