100 Most Dangerous Things on the Planet: What to Do If It Happens to You

by Anna Claybourne (Author)

Synopsis

In this exciting book, children learn how to face and survive the world's most dangerous situations. From natural disasters and wild weather, to getting lost in the wild and fighting off dangerous animals, readers learn the skills needed to combat 100 real life dramas. Each danger is rated in terms of how likely you are to meet it, and how likely you are to survive, from the unlikely event of an asteroid strike or bear attack (minimal chance of survival) to the more likely event and maximum chance of surviving a flood or forest fire. A concluding spread provides at-a-glance safety dos and don'ts and essential first aid advice.
