This is a very popular book (and series) by Lauren Tarshis that deals with well-known events in history. This book gives an account of the sinking of the Titanic through the eyes of a 10-year-old boy named George. He and his sister and Aunt are on the ship as first class passengers. He gets into a lot of trouble on the boat - just as any boy would do. But when the ship starts to sink, he becomes the hero for his family since he had explored the ship so much. How does he accomplish that? You will have to read it to see!!
This was a great book and very short. The reading level is low, so it will appeal to all students from about 3rd grade and up. The subject matter is not too shocking since most already know the story of the Titanic's voyage. I would recommend it to all students.
