You are about to embark on a dangerous adventure. With this game in
a book, use the pop-out Survival Spinner to learn your fate as you
face peril after peril in a wild, rugged landscape. You become lost
in the mountains after an emergency landing. Among the snowy peaks,
you are at risk from dangers including falling victim to
hypothermia, being buried by an avalanche or stumbling into a deep
crevasse. In your backpack, you have a sleeping bag, a thermal
roll-mat, a bottle of water, a bag of nuts, waterproof matches, a
pair of binoculars, a camera, a first aid kit and an old survival
journal belonging to your grandfather. As you confront each
life-threatening challenge in this adventure-filled game book,
place the Survival Spinner found inside the cover of the book on
one of the circles on your current page, and spin. The place where
the spinner points when it stops tells you if you have survived,
are still living but injured or that you have perished, with a
corresponding page number to turn to for each fate. Throughout, you
will learn about real-life survival techniques, including how to:
Make a snow shelter Build a fire Survive a bear attack Treat a
wound Use the sun and moon to navigate Cross a frozen lake
Harrowing tales of real-life wilderness survivors provide glimmers
of hope as you deal with the consequences of your choices. One bad
decision could lead to disaster... Frozen Mountain is the debut
book in the exhilarating Spin to Survive series. Discover real-life
survival tips and stories as you navigate your own perilous journey
through the wilderness guided by your decisions and the removable
Survival Spinner. Have you got what it takes to survive?

Green and Blue are best friends. But . . . who is the bestest? Green builds a bigger, better shell. And then Blue builds a bigger, betterer shell! Uh-oh - I think we can guess where this is going. Who, or what, will ultimately triumph? This furiously fast-paced and witty picture book warns of the dangers of comparing yourself to others, especially your friends! Packed with lots of visual humor, children will hoot with laughter at Blue and Green's ever-growing silly shells. From Clive Penguin illustrator and creator of the Agent Harrier graphic novel series, Ben Sanders.
