Review

This is the second book by this author that features a team of youth that end up time traveling and experiencing some moments of history. The first book was about the Blitz during the war, and this time it was about seeing the Titanic before it sank.

Jack and Emmie are a little mischievous when they sneak off from their class and enter a tunnel that lands them on the Titanic. They see it as a big adventure and the chance to let their teacher know some facts that may not be known. However, how will they get back to their time? Thankfully, there is a guide there that gives them hints and tells them what they must do to return to their time. It isn’t an easy task considering how people were evacuated on the ship, but they are successful in their mission.

While this book is written for middle-grade readers, anyone could enjoy this story. There are many facts peppered throughout about the Titanic, the passengers, and what it was like on the ship during the maiden voyage. I felt like the author did a good job researching the details to present an accurate representation of what might have happened in 1912. There is a lot of excitement for the characters and the author brings the reader into the story, and I felt like I was there on the ship with Jack and Emmie.

We give this book 5 paws up.
