THIS is how you make history come alive for kids!
A stowaway, two murderers confined in the ship's brig, (plus Jack the Ripper, of the old Whitecastle murders) has been identified also aboard the Titanic, prowling for victims... Book #2 of Korman's Titanic series introduces you to adventure aboard the greatest ship of all time.
Books like this should really interest young readers in historical events. I enjoy reading about the Titanic whenever I can, but this series really gives me some more insight. I think because it shows 4 teenagers' individual lives, and a little bit about all the classes of people who sailed on the magnificent ship.
