Story Weaver, a digital repository of multilingual stories for children, is an initiative of Pratham Books, a leading non-profit publisher of children’s books. In this site, children can get access to stories in multiple languages.

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu on his Twitter handle informing about the publication of Tine’s story recently stated: “Tine and the Faraway Mountain – story about first women Everester of North East.”

Mena completed her expedition to Mount Everest on May 9, 2011 and the total expenditure of her remarkable expedition was around Rs 20 lakh.

She also worked as a porter for the Indian Army.

The book has quoted Tine Mena as saying: “I completely let go of fear. Fear of norms and fear of society. I was neither afraid of failure, nor dying. I believed in my own strengths and nurtured my natural talent. I improved my weaknesses. And above all, I always followed my heart.”
