Reviews

A large trim size and crisp images distinguish this entry in the “Amazing Rescue Vehicles” series (4 titles), which turns its nautical eye on the different kinds of rescue boats and the people who drive them. Bold, full-bleed photographs grab attention right off the bat, while the text—a few basic sentences per page—explains the design and function of several different kinds of vessels, before moving into the roles of the people who work on these boats. Vocabulary words are defined in the text, and an ending spread diagrams the features of two primary types of rescue boats. The back matter, which consists of further print and digital resources for readers to explore, will be welcomed by those who want more than a cursory overview. Useful as a springboard and basic overview for a lesser-covered STEM topic.
