      Gr 3-5-Readers are strongly cautioned against trying any of the activities mentioned in these books without consulting a parent or teacher first. That's probably enough motivation right there to send any young fan of Survivor or Naked and Afraid straight into the woods with no delay. While these titles feature gorgeous photos of children and families of all ethnicities, ages, and body types enjoying outdoor activities, they are low on practical how to. Most students will need additional information on how to build a signal fire, make a deadfall trap, and tie knots once their interest is piqued by these books. Getting Rescued provides the best information, in the form of priority lists and mnemonics. VERDICT Good introduction to the concepts but little practical advice is found in this attractive series.
