🌟 Mount Everest: The Roof of the World!

🏔️ The Tallest of Them All!
Mount Everest is the highest mountain on Earth — it’s about 29,032 feet tall! That’s taller than 20 Empire State Buildings stacked on top of each other! 🏙️🏔️

📏 Still Growing!
Believe it or not, Everest gets a tiny bit taller every year because of the Earth’s moving plates! 🌎📈

🗣️ Different Names!
People in Nepal call it “Sagarmatha” and people in Tibet call it “Chomolungma.” Both names mean something super special, like “Goddess of the Sky!” ☁️🏔️

🥾 First Heroes to the Top!
Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay were the first people to reach the top of Mount Everest way back in 1953! 🧗‍♂️🏅

💨 Hard to Breathe Up There!
The air at the top is super thin! Climbers usually need oxygen tanks to help them breathe! 🫧🧴

🕷️ Tiny Mountain Creatures!
Even way up high, small creatures like the Himalayan jumping spider can live near Everest’s peak! 🕷️❄️

🙏 A Sacred Mountain!
For many people who live near it, Mount Everest is very special and sacred, like a home for the gods! 🛕✨
