This book is was amazing but it could of been a bit longer
This is a fiction book about a boy and girl who travel on the Titanic. They have fun and enjoy themselves until the "unsinkable" ship is in danger. Will they escape in time?
I liked it because it stuck to the facts but focused on one person's experience. It still kept the facts real. When the Titanic started sinking, he had gone down to a lower level because one of the rich people had an Egyptian mummified princess and he went down to take a peek at it. He lost his sister because he had been causing trouble and running around awhile and she would tag along on the trouble. When the ship started sinking his sister wasn't in the room. He suggested she leave lemon drops like bread crumbs and he followed them to lower class people who were trying to get out to upper levels. He convinced the security guy to let them in and then he let them out.
I like all the titanic books
George is on the Titanic which sinks but he jumps on a raft and rescues someone else. This is an easy and fun read. There is adventure in it.
I Survived The Sinking Of The Titanic, was a very interesting book. I have read it a few times, and it never disappoints. Many of the characters are quite memorable in multiple ways.
everybody knows the story of the titanic am I right or not?
This book is pretty good but in other words, i really like the series and i have a bunch of them on my bookshelf so this book is pretty nice.
I loved this book it was so interesting but sad at the same time. Many lives were lost
