Rescue

The last in this series of books, possibly not quite as superlative as the previous two but still a good read greatly enjoyed by an 8 year old and his 10 year old brother.

I pre-ordered this as soon as I saw it was coming. We have the two other books from this series and they have been huge favourites.We haven't read all the stories in this one yet but it's shaping up to be just as good.One caveat, the age range is given as 5-8. My children are 7 and 11 and have been a little spooked by some of the bad things that happen (e.g. earthquake levelling a school) so do be aware of that.

This was epic, said my 11 year old daughter. She liked the racing car story and the fire. She liked that it was short stories that you could dip in and out.

Excellent book, especially for my son who finds reading "boring". The short stories are interesting and informative. If you can drag your son off the Xbox for five minutes, then this is well worth it.

Kids love this series. Re-reading it again and again.
