My 11-year-old grandson has been obsessed by all things Titanic since he was about four. So, my spouse decided to get a couple of books about the Titanic for him for Christmas. She let me read this one first. It's not an adult book, but appropriate for kids. None-the-less, I found it rather fun.

Ten-year-old George, and his eight-year-old sister, Phoebe, are on the Titanic's maiden voyage accompanied by their Aunt Daisy. Aunt Daisy had recently been widowed. It had been the dream of her late husband to make this trip, so Aunt Daisy decided to keep the tickets already bought and she took George and Phoebe along with her.

George is known for getting into trouble, and he finds trouble a plenty on the ship. What's a 10-year-old to do but go exploring? Anyway, he does and makes friends with some immigrants in the lower decks, Marco and his kid, Enzo (or did I forget and it's the other way around?).

Well, things go fine until they hit the ice berg and the ship begins to sink, but they all manage to find a way off and to safety, and later on, find themselves reconnected with Marco and Enzo.

Pretty fun. I'll have to check with my grandson to see if they got the basic facts of the sinking, and lifeboat lowering, and so forth correctly.
