Description

A cave explorer falls into a deep chasm in Wales. Two men are buried alive when an earthquake strikes a gold mine in Australia. A toddler becomes stuck after plunging into an abandoned well in Texas. These remarkable true tales could have ended in tragedy--but they didn't! What happened to these people when they became trapped underground? And how did they survive to tell their tales? Young readers will find out in this easy-to-read hi-lo graphic novel that will keep them on the edge of their seats!

Critical Reviews

The titles in this exciting series of graphic novels each cover three stories of survival that really happened. Some of the stories begin with a bad decision or mistake, while others begin with an accident like a fall or a cave-in. Each story ends with the survival of the main person the story is about, although not all of their friends are as lucky. The fascinating story of Ada Blackjack from Deep Freeze Danger will leave readers wanting to learn more im-mediately. An Alaskan native, Ada was the only woman on a far north expedition, and the only survivor. These graphic novels are written at a third grade level and recommended by the publisher for grades four through six, although as all the biographies are of adults, older readers may enjoy them, too. VERDICT A great choice where graphic novels are popular or used to support reading.--Jeri Murphy, Illinois Central College, Peoria, IL "School Library Journal"
