Notes
Description
"When lives are in danger, we are all grateful to the individuals who swoop in to the resuce. Whether trained experts or innocent bystanders, they are all extraordinary true-life heroes. Scambling from the wreckage of his school after an earthquake, a nine-year old Sichuan boy rescued two unconscious friends, 'I was hall monitor,' he said afterwards.' It is my job to look after my classmates.' Whether dragging a friend from a blazing car, leading a search far below the earth's surface, or recovering astronauts from space, the true stories in this book reveal the ingenuity, courage and determination of people all over the world who have risked their lives to save others."--Back cover.
