This story is about Jack and Annie. They go on an adventure on the Titanic. They didn’t know they were going on the Titanic, but then they looked and saw the gigantic ship. They were surprised. Jack flipped in his research book and found out that that the ship would sink at 2:20 AM. So, they told the people on the boat to get ready. Annie was able to get into a lifeboat, but Jack didn’t get in. Read to find out what happens to Jack.
I like this book because there are scary, happy, and sad parts. My favorite part was when Annie was warning people and the halls were flooding. I wonder what it would feel like to go on an adventure on the Titanic. I think it would be sort of scary. I wonder what it would be like to be in that type of situation.
I recommend this book to kindergarteners through third graders. Also, kids who like mysteries might like this book.
