Reading Level: 3-7 I really loved this book because it reminded me of the books I used to read as a child. Every page has amazing drawings of this beautiful and historic ship that only a few thousand people have seen once. I really like how everything is explained in detail and even labeled for young readers to be able to understand. This tells the story of the Titanic from the first idea before it was drawn to it being built and finally to when she sank. Not only does it talk about the survivors but also a few people that die that tragic night. Noon, Steve (Illustrator) New York: Dorling Kindersley, 2012.

This DK classic being brought back in print tells the story of the Titanic's fateful voyage through vivid original artwork. Young readers will learn and discover how the ship was built and equipped, what kind of passengers and crew she carried, and what facilities she offered onboard. Learn how she struck an iceberg, why she sank so quickly, how many people were saved, and how many lives were lost. Audience: Children ages 8 and up Curriculum ties: science- marine archaeology (study clues left behind in shipwrecks); physical science- study and examine materials that preserve or deteriorate in salt water, oxidation of iron, salinity, buoyancy; biological science- sea animal and plant life living in shipwrecks; history/social science- what was life like a hundred years ago?, how did socioeconomic status play a role in where you stayed on the Titanic and why?, research reliable and relevant primary and secondary sources relating to the Titanic; language arts- create a diary or journal pretending to be one of the passengers or crew members (using primary and secondary sources); geography- map the journey of surviving passengers or crew members (from where they started to their final destination) Awards: None Personal response: As a child, I was completely fascinated by the “unsinkable” Titanic. Perhaps that is why I was drawn to read this book. But apart from my interest in the subject matter, I found this book to be a particularly thorough resource about the series of events leading up to its unfortunate sinking. Visually rich with a plethora of fascinating facts, beginning with her conception all way to her final moments, readers will be captivated not only by the detailed illustrations with cutaway scenes, but also by the hourly account given on each page after the ship hits the iceberg to its eventual sinking. Additionally, this book gives fascinating insight into everything about the Titanic, including the daily lives of the passengers and crew members, the role of social class and survival, as well as the most recent developments since the discovery of the wreck. I would highly recommend this book (and any reference book in the DK series) to any young reader interested in learning about topics in a various different content areas in a comprehensive and appealing format suitable for children of all ages sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
