Survive at Sea
Survive at Sea

Practical survival guide for extreme aquatic conditions.

If you're intrigued by survival stories or planning an adventure that might test your limits, "Survive at Sea" is a practical pick. Claire Llewellyn doesn't just spin tales of survival; she delves into the science and practicalities behind enduring nature's harsh maritime environments. It’s a blend of storytelling and educational content that could be a real lifesaver—or at least a gripping read.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Your boat is sinking fast in rough waters and you’ve got two minutes to get into a life raft — do you have what it takes to survive? Brave, young sailors can experience life lost at sea without ever getting their feet wet in this unique adventure book. Twelve exciting survival challenges put children to the test as they attempt to complete tasks like getting fresh water, finding food, and — yikes! — dealing with hungry sharks. With educational and practical advice, this book incorporates dynamic graphics and illustrations with easy-to-follow instructions. A fun quiz at the end shows young readers how much they’ve learned.
