My Thoughts
Imagine my surprise when I read that billionaire Clive Palmer and his Blue Star Line company unveil the blueprints of the Titanic II this week in New York City. The new ship is schedule to transport passengers across the sea in 2016.
Not sure what I think about this but to go in line with this announcement, I thought it would be the perfect time to post a review for the book The White Star Line Titanic Notebook. This book contains the story of the world’s most famous ship and features pop-ups, flaps, foldouts, illustrations, photographs, documents and plans. And to top it out you will also have a 27-inch-long Titanic model to assemble!
Packed with vintage photos and drawings, this notebook will guide you through the building, the voyage and the tragedy of the Titanic that happened more than 100 years go. This book itself is fabulous as it contains numerous ways to attract the person reading it in exploring and discovering the story of the Titanic. You will have to open papers in order to learn more about the Titanic. You will be surprised by pop-outs as you turn the pages. You will read some comic strips to illustrate something that happened on the Titanic. But I think the best part of the book is the build your own model of the Titanic which can be found at the end of the book. For a child who loves to build paper model, this will be the summon of reading this book!
This book is perfect to use as an history tool when the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic comes around. I find it important that my kids learn about past event so that they know that anything can happen in life.
