Book Description

September 1, 2005 4 and upP and upImpatient Pamela

“Young readers of this exceptionally well-conceived and executed picture book will identify with Pamela and become better equipped to handle emergency 9-1-1 phone calls should the need ever arise.”—Children’s Bookwatch

“In this instructive story, Pamela learns her address, how to use the telephone, how to dial 9-1-1, and how to recognize an emergency. The style is light and breezy and the illustrations amusing.”—Ann Kalkhoff, Children’s Book Review Service

Impatient Pamela is back with this second edition of her first adventure. She learns all about using the telephone and how to call 9-1-1. She’s impatient to make the call, but she needs to learn about true emergencies. When her friend Martin visits and chokes on a bite of his sandwich, it’s time for Pamela to stay calm. Will she remember her lessons? Children love going along with Pamela as she saves the day. And Pamela’s cat, Meow-Man, is on every page. Winner of The National Parenting Center’s Seal of Approval.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teaches without being scary, February 7, 2000
By A Customer
This book was great for teaching my son about calling 911 without scaring him with all kinds of terrible accidents. The character was engaging and the illustrations lots of fun. The book facilitated a great discussion about learning our address and telephone number, which he now spouts at every opportunity! Thanks to the author and illustrator from this mom.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Impatient Pamela Calls 9-1-1 (Hardcover)
Surprisingly, this book held the attention of both my 3 & 4 year old boys. They request to have it read to them over and over again and then we spend time reviewing the various scenarios of when it is appropriate to call 911. Little Pamela is someone they can connect with as she is impatient, eager to help, and quick at learning a responsible behavior.
