this book was great i learned more about the tittanic
This is an excellent book! I love all the history.
This book was so good
I can't belive it was real. I have the book and the rest of the I survived books. But I like this one the best.
I survived is a popular series written by no one other than, Lauren Tarshis. Join George and his family for a destination of a lifetime. In this book you will experience many elements to a story, action, suspense, and tragedy. George, a middle classed person. Not wealthy, but certainly not poor. His grandfather died last year after his mother’s death and he, his sister Phoebe, and his grandmother are going to board the Titanic. Onwards, to meet their father. George is a troubled child, he would find himself into the wrong place every day, and his father, being somewhat strict. Would send George to military school. The main conflict is now up to George not to get himself into trouble and survive this luxury ship. Join George and his family on their journey onto the Titanic. From where the luxury turns into danger….. I would recommend this book to people who are interested by the titanic and wants to learn more from this historical fiction novel.
that book was sad man like wow
This book is pretty good because it was based on the true story, except told by a child. It is captivating because George and his little sister Phoebe have to get off the ship once the ship hit the iceberg. After reading the book a second time over, I found out that something that I didn't understand the first time is an important thing to know about the world now.
I read this book so many times and it's the best book ever! It has so many historical events in it too.
George and his sister were going on the titanic everyone thought the ship was unsinkable . one night the ship hit an iceberg.
