Title: Kids to the Rescue: First Aid Techniques for Kids by Maribeth Boelts, Darwin Boelts, Marina Megale ISBN: 1-884734-78-2 Publisher: Parenting Pr Pub. Date: January, 2003 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $8.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 2.5 (2 reviews)
Rating: 2
Summary: Very superficial - better selections available.
Comment: This book would be better than having no first aid book or reference at all - but, not much better. Topics covered include: nose bleed, something in eye, bleeding, broken bones, dog and snake bite, poisoning, insect sting, chemical burn in eye, choking, electric shock, burns, unconsciousness, clothes on fire, and dialing 911. There is also a quiz in the back. The number of topics covered are OK, but the information is often incomplete. Three examples: 1) The section on bee stings omits any discussion on finding and removing the bee's stinger without accidentally getting more bee venom in the wound. 2) The section on dog bites omits any information on how to avoid getting bitten. 3) The section on broken bones has a grand total of 53 words of advice. In fact most sections of the book fail to mention ways to avoid injury, or methods of care that are included in other children's 1st aid books. Although this book is inexpensive - I feel it is not a good buy. For a little more money I highly recomend "The Safety Book for Active Kids", which is sold by Amazon.
Rating: 3
Summary: "Kids to the Rescue" is a book for learning.
Comment: I think that kids my age (7)should read this book. If they have a frisky little sister like me, they're going to babysit her soon and they will need to know these things.
