Editorial Review

Both of these titles discuss the importance of safety in daily life by presenting different situations and explaining how to respond. Bicycle begins with a story about a child wearing a helmet and then goes into rules and regulations for riding. Fire opens with a scenario in which a smoke alarm goes off in a child’s bedroom and continues with information about how fires start, how to prevent them, and how to escape. Full-color photos illustrate the texts and add visual interest. Adequate purchases that support core-curriculum standards.
