Readers will feel as if they are among the over two thousand passengers on board in this gripping account of the terrible disaster of the Titanic. Initially, no one believed the ship was really sinking. The band played on deck to keep people's spirits up, and then, as panic spread, there weren't enough lifeboats for everyone. Years later scientist Robert Ballard laboriously searched for and finally found the sunken ship, which he left at the bottom of the sea as a memorial.
A simple account of the sinking of the Titanic and the discovery of its remains many years later.

December 19, 1999: This book is awful. I gave it to my son Eugene and he said even babies wont read this! I gave it to read to some of my friends' childrenwho were in first and second grade, and even they refused to read it. The diagrams of the ship are all wrong. This is the most awfyl Titanic book ever made.
