Firefly Books Ltd Ultimate Survival Guide for Kids

My 5 year old granson really likes the pictures and enjoys having it read to him. It is similar to the Boys Life series called " Scouts in Action " except instead of a tale it is more focused on info about dangerous even deadly things that occur in mostly in nature. Useful starter info to prepare a youngster for what can happen and what to do or not do. It is slightly graphic which is good. But it doesnt really go into gruesome detail. Which is also good for little ones. If your intended child is timid or fearful this might actually provide info to help them feel equipped to go into the scary outdoors. ; ) Alternately if your intended child is one of the newer model kids, i/e very timid afraid of everything and can't cope, or needs constant mothering ,then this could be conceivably be to much info for that kid. It does feature interesting things in nature to include predator animal attacks, venomous beasties and natural disaster, The sort of stuff that really interests a curious adventurous. Cool graphics and interesting factoids each topic is covered on 2 pages so it is a overview. I would estimate that it is aimed towards the Weblo and Cub Scout age group, Of course that could vary, with the kid.

Exciting and informative. Our son loves reading about the outdoors and how to survive the big, bad world out there!

this was a gift for an 8 year old. No idea yet how useful it will prove to be, but well received

Grandson really liked it!

I bought this for an 11 year old. He loved it. It has lots of information and isn't as repetitive as other survival books I've read.
