Ten-year old George and his little sister, Phoebe, are thrilled to be taking a cruise on the famed ship, the Titanic, with their Aunt Daisy. However, as most young readers know, tragedy awaits and resourceful George must come up with a plan to save family and friends. Students are fascinated with the Titanic story and this short book, ideal for reluctant readers, personalizes the events of that fateful night in 1912.
