Review Quotes: (review of UK edition) We highly recommend this book. Every little explorer should have one. The book is inspiring, formative and an excellent way to encourage children to get outside and take an interest in the world.--Get Out With the Kids Blog "Shell Grayston" (5/4/2017 12:00:00 AM) Review Quotes: Selection, The Best Survival Books To Prepare For Anything. The Ultimate Explorer Guide For Kids is packed with survival tips and tricks to help kids learn the art of self-reliance and outdoor survival.-- "The Survival Journal" (11/27/2019 12:00:00 AM) Review Quotes: Splashy layouts with plenty of access points for reluctant readers. Every page in this compact-sized book contains four or five colorful photos and graphics -- think Boy Scout Handbook on steroids... Highly readable.--Karen Kline "Puget Sound Council for the Review of Children's and Young Adult Literature" (9/30/2017 12:00:00 AM) Review Quotes: (review of UK edition) There's a huge amount of information, and inspiration, contained in this rucksack-pocket-sized guide. Author and real-life explorer Justin Miles covers all the basics, including essential kit and how to pack it, and the key survival skills - lighting fires, tying knots, using a compass (there's even one attached to the cover). He also describes the challenges of real life exploring in the world's extreme climates, quoting examples from his own travels and from history. The information is clearly laid out, and the anecdotes and true life stories are fascinating. Justin comes across as exactly the kind of bloke it would be fun to trek with across the Arctic. Guaranteed to put kids in the mood for outdoor activities.--Andrea Reece "LoveReading4Kids" (2/1/2015 12:00:00 AM) Table of Contents: Introduction Prepare to Explore!
