Perfect for a second-grade reader or bedtime for kids who are enchanted by ships. Information is historically accurate, including data that can be used in social justice argumentation if wished.

Fact filled, Great photos and understandable for kids.

Really good and interesting! My son love this book .

What's with the 4-year-olds in love with the Titanic? At first I thought I was the only one, and then I read the reviews. My son joins a club of little guys and gals who can't get enough of all things Titanic - and we don't have enough answers. So, that's where amazing writers, editors, photographers, and publishers come in. When I see anything Titanic that could entertain a 4-year-old and answer his endless questions, I pick it up. I've googled all I can, I need help! I LOVE this book! It is FULL of pictures on fantastic wipe clean pages! Photo pages. (4-year-old boys get everything dirty, and within the first 24 hours he had something on these pages, and I was over-the-moon when I discovered how easily they wiped clean. Bonus!) So many great pictures fill this book. Because to a preschooler, who can't read, that's the most important thing! He doesn't want a book filled with words that he doesn't understand, he wants pictures of things he can see. Relate to. Look at. He loves the pictures. He loves to flip through this book and stare at all the pictures, and then show us all the pictures. "Look at this one!" It has pictures of the Titanic being built. Of it floating. Of it sinking. Of it on the ocean floor... And that's what these kids want to see. All these amazing pictures. Of course, it's full of awesome facts, too. Facts I haven't heard or seen yet either, which makes it that much better. Short little facts that I can read before he flips the page. That he actually takes interest in. That he can repeat. This is a fantastic little book for anybody who's interested in the Titanic - but especially for kids. Lots of pictures, durable pages, and full of interesting facts. Oh, and a great price! I just wish it came with a Kindle copy.

Enough to say that our six-year-old loves it, the book is very well made, as all NatGeo books are.

My son is 7 and interested in the Titanic. I wanted something that had lots of facts and pictures, but was still accessible and appropriate for his age group and reading level (too many books for kids on this topic are too dense, or are for older readers). The book is good for both solo reading and reading together. It's not too long or too big, so it's not intimidating. I like the imagery and the design. It is just enough for a young boy's attention span. The author is a good children's non-fiction writer, so when I saw her name as author, I felt confident ordering this book.

Great photos and information. My 4 yr old grandson and his dad both loved the book.

My 8 year old son and I really liked reading it together.
