Reason for Reading: I have had a lifelong fascination with the Titanic and am participating in a Titanic Reading Challenge as the 100th anniversary of the sinking is remembered this year.
This book is a reprint this year of a previously published "novelty 3D pop-up book". The gadgets have been removed and we are presented here with the text and illustrations of the original book. Unlike the majority of children's non-fiction books these days, the book is not divided up into 2-page spreads but rat...more

Little Kid Reaction: My friend’s son enjoyed the book and wants to read more about the ship and sea disasters in general.
Big Kid Reaction: The book is well designed, with lots of good information. It is an excellent way of introducing a youngster to the story of the Titanic.

I've been a Titanic obsessive from a young age (since I heard that my grandfather met survivors during the time he lived in New York) so when I saw this pop up book It was an instant purchase. I love all the small detailing in this book. An engaging, visual read.

This short book looks like a kid's picture book, but the information given is really good for everyone interested in this classic tragedy.
Excellent book. This book never fails to turn up under beds, in toy box and on floor! It has held the kid's attention forever.
An enjoyable short picture book that takes a dip into the fatal Voyage. Facts on all things about the Titanic, the building of, how it did and should of worked. And of course the sinking. It has plenty of statistics. Great addition for the 100th anniversary.
