K-3Stepping Stone series.
Illustrated by
Sal Murdocca.
Jack and Annie offer tips for surviving the wilderness, disasters, and menacing encounters. Some advice is practical (stay hydrated in extreme heat); some is tongue-in-cheek (if a T. rex visits, "Call the police!"). The variety of design elements (color photos, different colored backgrounds, numbered lists, paper-clipped note cards, illustrations) is lively and engaging. A working compass is embedded in the cover.
