Frost And Fire by Ray Bradbury
Set on a distant planet where the sun's intense heat and the freezing nights dictate a human lifespan of just eight days, the story follows a young boy named Sim who dreams of extending his life beyond the constraints of his harsh environment. As he grows rapidly, both physically and mentally, Sim embarks on a perilous journey to reach a distant mountain where ancient technology promises salvation. Along the way, he encounters the challenges of his world, grappling with the fleeting nature of existence and the hope for a future where life is not bound by the relentless cycle of frost and fire.
