It showed a lot of good information through the illustrations and the text itself was informative. The book carries out as if the reader is also on the titanic watching everything unfold around them. It takes us through us the building process, the ships setting sail, the passengers and different classes, the striking of the iceberg, the sinking, the rescue of the few survivors, and finally the discovery of the titantic in 1985. I think you could use this book in both a social studies class or a science class when the My speak of how they discovered it. I marked it for older children because I think I was in 4th grade when I first learned of the titantic sinking. Summary: the "unsinkable ship" that was built with luxury, and comfort is setting course to America. Doomed to sink, few passengers find a lifeboat when titanic strikes and iceberg. The saving ship Carpathia saves what is left of the passengers. New laws have been in place, and new technology to prevent another travesty such as the titanic. Reflection: there was actually a few things in this that I didn't actually know such as the California, and the Titanic being called "the rich mans ticket". Pretty interesting to still learn things about something I thought I knew about. Extension: would make a great history lesson about how technology has progressed to further ensure our safety afloat new ships. no reviews | add a review
