Most of them have already been done but this one was in like, 1970, so it's one of my tops:

Banner in the Sky. It was one of my schoolbooks last year.

It focuses around a kid who wants to climb this supposedly unclimbable mountain that his dad died on when trying to climb it. But since his dad died on the mountain, his over-protective mom and uncle refuse to let him try. With help from his boss, who became lame when climbing the mountain with his dad, the kid trains and eventually climbs the mountain alongside his uncle, a famous climber, and his uncle's rival. But just before he reaches the top, his uncle's rival gets badly hurt- will he save this guy who's been such a jerk? Or will he fulfill his (and his dad's) long-time dream?

I forget the character's names cuz I haven't read it in a year. But that's the plot.
