I came across this and its corresponding book for boys in the non-fiction section. According to the covers, they should be mirror images of each other, right? Both girls and boys doing awesome things. Maybe some school survival stuff. Mostly non-school-related survival stuff. But the contents of the book were quite a different story.

According to these books, here are things boys can survive:
-a shark attack
-a plane crash
-an earthquake
-whitewater rapids
-a swarm of bees

And here are things girls can survive:
-a bff fight
-tests
-shyness
-a fashion disaster
-truth or dare

To be fair, both books have a chapter on surviving zombie attacks (although upon closer inspection, the boys' book suggests hitting them with baseball bats, while the girls' book encourages running away). But what is the point of these matching books? That girls shouldn't (or couldn't) know how to survive disaster situations? That boys don't have to learn social skills or know how to pass a test? This baffles me.
