EXTREME jr. edition
How to Avoid a Tsunami, How to Escape from a Mountain Lion, How to Find Water in the Desert, How to Deal with a Charging Moose, How to Survive an Elephant Stampede. The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Extreme Junior Edition teaches you how to do all these things and more. It is by two amazing authors, David Borgenicht and Justin Heimberg and it has the funniest illustrations by Chuck Gonzales. It is about how to survive in a bunch of horrible scenarios. For example, it teaches you how to build a shelter in the rain forest and it says “…hang a do not disturb sign on your home so the jungle animals will leave you alone.”
I think it is a great book for any reader who wants to survive when at sea, when in the mountains, when in the desert, when in the arctic, or when on safari. It’s only 128 pages so it is pretty short but some of the text is kind of confusing. This book is set up so that you don’t have to read the different scenarios in order. None of the scenarios have anything to do with another scenario so it’s all random bad scenarios put together like a college.

Something tells me every kids should read this book, just in case! Although I don’t plan on taunting any mountain lions anytime soon. Mrs. M
