The real life photos in this book are great. My son loves the blastoff readers. This one has great facts about helicopters and how helicopters do different things, such as, drop water on forest fires, airlifts sick people to the hospital and many other helpful uses. He had a great time reading this book.

I really liked to make the person read the book for myself [this book came with an audio function that reads it to me]. I liked that I could turn it off when I wanted to stop reading the book. The helicopters go flying in the air! Also, I liked when the person was talking about helicopters for me.

My favorite part is when the helicopter was fighting a forest fire.

I like that helicopters can hover.

I did not know that there were private helicopters or tour helicopters. I thought they were just for rescuing people.

I like that helicopters can have buckets of water.
