Helicopters

by Valerie Bodden

Sirens blare. Helicopter blades whir. A boat engine revs. When an emergency arises, special vehicles are called to the scene. Rescue Vehicles captures all the important and intense action involved when people need help. Straightforward text and colorful photos convey the physical features of each vehicle, as well as the ways in which the personnel who operate the vehicle use the equipment at hand to help people in crisis.

Reviews

[Makayla Stevens · Rating 4 out of 5]

Helicopters is a good book for young readers. It gives very basic information about a helicopter starting with what a helicopter even is. The book also informs the readers about the gear needed in helicopters as well as providing important key terms from the book. The pictures have great graphics and are interesting to look at. For these reasons I am rating this book 4/5 stars. I believe the book completed its job successfully by informing young readers about helicopters.
