I have a fairly sizeable collection of Titanic books, but until now I had nothing written and illustrated specifically for children. Ken Marschall is a consummate illustrator and his artwork in this book is stunning. One of the important things is that the story is about two real children – one in first class; one in steerage – who were actually on the Titanic. While, even for kids, there can be no happy ending to this story, the book follows the main characters’ lives past the sinking and rescue, into adulthood, and till their deaths. The story is written with low-key emotion, and is more factual than overwhelmingly sad. The story of the Titanic is almost 100 years old but the lessons we learn from it today are as important as those learned back in 1912. It’s an important true story, well worth purchIDg to read with your kids.
I purchased this book for my 4 and a half-year-old son, which is now fascinated by all things Titanic. I felt the tragic nature of the story; the excessive text of most books and the content of the movies were not suitable for kids. When I found this book I knew it would be just right for a him.
The size of the book was the first thing that amazed my son. Then he was impressed with the dominant artwork inside. Marschall’s illustrations are simply wonderful. He’s indeed a great artist and an expert when it comes to the Titanic. The book illustrates the great ship, its interiors and it’s ultimate demise as it follows the story of two real-life children that were aboard the Titanic on her maiden voyage.
My son was so excited after we finished the book that he insisted to take it to school where his teacher had a reading for the whole class.
Although this book was meant for kids – everyone will certainly enjoy it! I bought it for my nephews this past Christmas. (11 and 9 years old) James Cameron’s film had just come out. The boys hadn’t seen it, but they were interested in the disaster. When I saw this book I knew they’d love it! I honestly thought about keeping it for myself! Beautiful illustrsations and a captivating story. You really get the feel of how immense this ship was to two very young boys. It may not be exactly accurate – but it was designed as a children’s book and not as a practical schematic for engineers. If you have kids who are interested in the Titanic disaster ( or if you’re a history buff) I highly recommend this one!
