Ever since I was three years old The Titanic has been my favorite movie. When I saw a children's chapter book about the titanic I just had to grab it! I liked this book because of the way it is set up. Each chapter is a new day of Edwin's adventure. For example, chapter 1 is all about April 9, 1912. This chapter focuses on the day before he leaves to go to the promise land and chapter 2 is all about April 10, 1912. This will help readers better understand and keep track of the sequence of events. Another thing I liked about this book was the description. For example, when Edwin was describing the Titanic the text says "The rows of portholes seemed endless. How could something this gigantic float? It was astounding!" The text uses great, age appropriate adjectives. The overall message I took away from this book, is that everything happens for a reason. This is also a great historical fiction book for young readers who want to learn about the titanic in a story told way. ( )
