Story of the Titanic tells us the sad but interesting tale of the Titanic.

On the 15th of April 1912, the Titanic sunk, after colliding with an iceburg, at 11:14PM on the 15th of April, while on her first voyage, to New York.

A great insite into what happened with brilliant illustrations.

There are many books about The Titanic. I like this book because it does not focus solely on the sinking of the ship. The illustrations with cut-out looking inside the ship are interesting and I think kids will enjoy peering inside.

Sam has recently developed a fascination with all things Titanic. He checked out every book from the library on the topic, but this one is by far his favorite. The illustrations are very detailed, which he likes.

Beautiful and heart-wrenching, as any Titanic book is bound to be.

It contains lots and lots of facts--each page is packed--so even diehard longtime Titanic fans will find something new here.
