How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome for all Ages!
Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2020
My 9 yo daughter has loved the I Survived series for a few years now. Truth be told, I do too.

The stories are always about a kid (usually 11yo) who lives through historical disasters, and we learn about those disasters through his/her eyes.

The tales are well-written and include facts- as well as historical fiction to hold the audience’s attention.

They are exciting and sad; gripping and profound; tragic and heartwarming. You can always count on the main kid-character surviving...but not always the other people in the story.

Your child and you will certainly come away with the intended morals:
*War is Hell. (D day, Pearl Harbor, Gettysburg, American Revolution, Civil War etc)
*People can be evil: (Hitler, 9/11, maybe in a few years, Trump will be a subject of one of her books)
*The newest inventions aren’t always the best: (Titanic, Hindenburg)
Don’t turn your back on nature: (Tsunamis, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanoes, fires, floods)
Animals are wild; don’t turn your back on them either:: (sharks, grizzlies)
And molasses is...well. We are reading that one next.

Really can not recommend enough.

Compared to the Titanic, this one was not as exciting or heartbreaking. But it was a interesting one. My 11 year old was somewhat interested.

4.0 out of 5 stars WE eperienced Mt St Helens eruiption.
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2021

I bought this book for my 7 year old grandson who loves reading and reads above his grade level. My only disappointment was the author addressed girls, encouraging them to be adventurous, rather than boys and girls before the title page. I knew it was about a girl surviving this historic event, but thought that wouldn't preclude inclusion of boys. I would feel the same had it been boys and girls. I crossed off girls and wrote Boys and Girls.... so, the book hasn't read the book yet, hopefully he will enjoy the story. Delivery was fast and the book was in new condition as described.

4.0 out of 5 stars ... have several of these books that my two boys love to have read to them
Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2018

We have several of these books that my two boys love to have read to them. Great, exciting stories with great historical elements to them. Great for starting discussions. The reason I rate 4 stars is because the binding on the books is very cheaply done ( I guess that's why the books are so inexpensive?). The binding starts to come apart after cracking open the books just one or two times.

These are well written, interesting stories for young readers. They are like simple chapter books with fictional characters that tell about their part in the historical event. Young readers can read each story in 2 days or less. I recommend them for 2nd graders.
