Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 6-9?Readers fascinated by the lore surrounding the sinking of the Titanic will likely enjoy this exciting, suspenseful, and romantic version of the tragedy. Fifteen-year-old Barry, a privileged, upper-class Irishman raised by his grandparents while his parents were off in China, is bound for America to join them at last. Class conflict comes aboard, too, in the form of Frank and Jonnie Flynn, who blame Barry's grandfather for their forced departure from Ireland via steerage. Frank's threats of revenge add a layer of fear to Barry's on-again, off-again relationship with their sister, Pegeen, as the plot steams steadily toward its inevitably icy climax. The final hundred pages of the book describe post-collision confusion that escalates toward chaos, including Barry's gallant attempt (in vain) to save Frank's life. He does succeed in saving Pegeen, and the two of them end up on the overturned inflatable life raft and are among those few rescued the next morning by the Carpathia. Lots of foreshadowing and hints of the supernatural (Watley, Barry's first-class steward, was born in a caul, which is said to have given him second sight) add interest, as does an interesting range of supporting characters.?Joel Shoemaker, Southeast Jr. High School, Iowa City, IA

Review

“A dread sense of the inevitable drives this taut disaster story-and makes it nearly impossible to put down.” —Publishers Weekly

"Readers fascinated by the lore surrounding the sinking of the Titanic will likely enjoy this exciting, suspenseful, and romantic version of the tragedy."—School Library Journal

"Bunting accurately and dramatically describes the ship's sinking and, at the same time, immerses readers in the many human tragedies. . . . this fast-paced story will satisfy readers looking for the human element in the Titanic's history."—Booklist —

SOS Titanic. Reading this book out me on the decks of Titanic just like all the books I have on the ship. This book starts departing from Queenstown in Ireland and ends with the rescue by the Cunard Liner Carpathia. Love this book. I thoroughly enjoy it.

SOS Titanic Unsinkable!

I have used this novel as a read-aloud to fourth and fifth graders for years. The students are spell-bound from the second chapter on- We enjoy it together and it encourages us to look up facts about Titanic and its mystique. Any other teachers out there: invest in this one. You won't be sorry and neither will your students! :)

I think this book is really interesting because it teaches you what happened in the titanic and when I read this with my 5th and 4th grade Discovery class we were all touched. So I hope someone else would be touched too. Thank you
