Can Emily and Matt save the Titanic?
ABOUT THE BOOK
In 1912, the world’s greatest engineers thought they had achieved the unthinkable — they had built an “unsinkable” ship, and people of all classes clamored to be on board for Her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. The Titanic’s infamous crash and subsequent sinking en route has fascinated people ever since. In SOS! Titanic!, young readers follow Emily and Matt as their magic sled takes them back in time to take part in this very important period in history.
Matt and Emily want to know everything about the Titanic and how it sank on April 15, 1912. And when the sled flies them to the famous ship on the afternoon of April 14, they realize they only have a few hours before the ship collides with an iceberg. Can the two friends convince Captain Smith to turn the Titanic around or change its course? Can they help their new friend Sally and her aunt survive the disaster? Is the "unsinkable" ship going to sink no matter what they do or say?
Author Frieda Wishinsky weaves well-researched and accurate historical facts into her compelling, kid-friendly storytelling, while Jean-Paul Eid’s evocative illustrations situate readers perfectly in the place, time, and action. At the end of their adventure, Emily and Matt share additional facts about the Titanic and the ship’s Canadian connection with Halifax, Nova Scotia. The author gives additional facts here too, in an informative Q&A format.
