This was a fun book to read for this post. It's an oversized book, almost 14 inches high and almost 12 inches wide, but it is filled with interactive adventures on every page. Begin by popping out the Survival Spinner that will determine your adventure at each step. And that adventure begins when you must parachute out of a disabled helicopter over some snowy mountains. What happens next is determined by placing the Survival Spinner on the circles on each page you have landed on and spinning. If you survive the spin, you go on, but if you die or perish, well, time to begin a new adventure and hope for better spin results. As you go along on your adventure, you will learn all kinds of survival skills, from surviving an avalanche to how to build a snow shelter, how to build a fire, how to judge distances, and how to treat a bleeding wound, among other survival techniques. I thought this looked like an interesting book, so I gave it to my neighbor who has a 10-year-old son to test drive. He loved playing with it and I had a hard time getting it back to write this review (yeah, I promised him he could have to keep when I'm done with it).
