Title, author, genre: I survived the sinking of the titanic,1912, author Lauren Tarshis, genre historical fiction. I chose rating 2 because. This book did not have a lot of sentences and words. But it had a lot of pages. I learned that everything is possible in life. I notice that everything is possible because the boy on the Titanic didn't give up but swimmed to the boat. Interestingly I learned that on that point the Titanic was the biggest moving thing in the world. I would recommend this book to 2-4 grade students because it’s not very hard to read.
