I really liked this story. It was an adventure. It got scary at one part. The Titanic was the biggest moving object ever built. I liked that it was facts and made up stories put together.

Based on the true story of the Titanic, George Calder and his little sister Phoebe was going on the the Titanic! They thought the Titanic was unsinkable, until one day the Titanic struck an iceberg! Now George needs all of his strength....to save his family!

this book is cool'

I love the history of the titanic so I decided to read this book and I learned allot of things that i did not know

I read this book and I thought it was cool and I started learning about the Titanic which I thought was interesting!

I really enjoyed this book because it taught me about the sinking of the Titanic. George Calder is on the Titanic, the "unsinkable" ship with his younger sister Phoebe and his Aunt Daisy. On the Titanic, there are different places to look at, and George can't wait to explore them. But when ten-year-old George strolls into the first-class storage cabin, George hears a big boom. What happened? This book is great for people who want to learn more about the Titanic and for younger readers.

This book is great ,but the age level for this book is only 3rd grade so it was very easy to read through entire book.
