《学校图书馆杂志》(School Library Journal)书评
Gr 5-10The theory behind this book is that perhaps kids will pay attention to their peers more than their elders when it comes to safety. Letters were solicited from patients ages 5 to 19 about accidents that happened to them or their families. Injuries and illnesses resulted from biking without a helmet; improper footwear for various activities; camping without proper gear; playing with fire; eating poison berries; not wearing a seatbelt; putting scissors in an electric socket; playing on an escalator; improper handling of fish hooks, guns, pocket knives; and much more. This list demonstrates the variety of problems examined, some of which had life-threatening results and others that had minimal effects. Each letter is accompanied by a sidebar that offers brief educational comments by medical staff. Illustrations by some of the young people are included, as are some photographs of ambulances, etc. This is a book that adults will wish kids would read and take to heart, but in fact it doesn't beg to be read. There is no thread to lead readers from one letter to the next. The table of contents shows an alphabetical listing by topic (bees, bicycles, burns). Basic safety rules are appended. Well intended, but unlikely to attract readers.Dorcas Hand, Annunciation Orthodox School, Houston (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Written by the Pediatric Emergency Department, Children's Hospital at Yale-New Haven. Young people relate incidents they have experienced or witnessed involving axes, knives, poison, and other safety hazards. Though the essays contain some sound advice, the book becomes tedious to read and would probably be best used in a discussion group led by an adult. Redundant cautionary comments from medical professionals appear in the margins. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and children's artwork. (c) Copyright 2010.

《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 4-6. An important subject is treated quite effectively in this unusual book made up mostly of children's essays about an accident that compromised their personal safety or the well-being of someone they know. Sounding sufficiently authentic, the accounts, which rarely run more than a page, range from expected childhood hazards, such as cuts and playground mishaps, to accidents with guns and cars. One or two end tragically. Most conclude with a few words of warning or a note about the lesson learned, and sidebar comments from doctors at Children's Hospital at Yale-New Haven add a few substantive details. The children who can read this book on their own will likely be well aware of the consequences of some of the actions mentioned (like sticking a foreign object in your ear), but to hear about what can actually happen in the words of a peer will most certainly have an impact. It never hurts to be reminded to be careful. Black-and-white illustrations are plentiful, many submitted by the children themselves. (Reviewed October 15, 1996)0761301097Stephanie Zvirin
