Alone in the forest - Outdoor Basixx

<p>After a personal tragedy - one of the children in her kindergarten got lost and died a short time after being rescued - Colleen Politano decided to do something to prepare children in case they get lost. To capture the attention of her child readers, the Outdoor Handbook begins with a story about a boy who gets lost in the woods and knows how to handle the situation. Colleen Politano then suggests planning different activities with children based on the story to help them understand how they should behave in a particular situation. Finally, she gives some practical tips for parents and teachers on how best to prepare a child for an emergency. </p> <p>Colleen Politano | Conrad Sten Verlag | 3rd edition 2011 | 87 pages | 18 sketches and illustrations, 33 color illustrations</p>
