4.0 out of 5 stars Educational Read-along for parents and teachers
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2024
What is a child to do when out and about for an adventure?

This is more than a story about Finlay the First Aid Bear and his desire to take a walk in the mountains with his little sister, Evee. It is about all the basic tools and tips needed to understand how one can take care of themselves when on such a journey.

So…

With Finlay sharing all this basic knowledge for readers, it helps and teaches them how best to prepare for a hike, as well as enjoy the adventure of Finlay and his sister, while still being prepared if something should happen.

But…

The author unfortunately creates a huge no-no for me. A cliffhanger. I recognize that this is book 1 and with her “to be continued” the author is encouraging readers to want to read book 2…

But…

She left a very important part of the story (no spoilers from me) without an ending. (Maybe me sharing this, is a spoiler.) All that I can think about is…

How will the kids feel about this important lack of resolution to the story? Will it be another teaching moment for the parents/teachers reading along with the kids?

Still…

For me, I like to read a book with a beginning, middle and an end. When an end is missing, it is an automatic star breaker for me.

Other than that, the story was…

Encouraging. Delightful. Helpful. Educational. Fun.

And…

Enjoyable for young readers and adults reading along with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finlay and Evee’s adventure
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2023
I loved this story and the illustrations were cheerful and helpful. A great teaching book about contacting emergency services and basic first aid. Also to remain calm in a crisis. Findlay is a lovable, friendly bear. He and his sister go on an adventure. This book is continued and I’m excited about more in this series.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
