{My thoughts} – George, his sister and his aunt are all on board the Titanic on the night it hits an iceberg and sinks. This graphic novel is a wonderful depiction of the original I Survived book that Lauren Tarshis wrote for children and middle grade. As I read through this book it was easy to recall the original book. A lot of the text is the same and or similar. The illustrations help to give you an idea of what the illustrator was seeing when they’d imagined the world in which the book was envisioned for. I have to admit it’s pretty spot on to what I thought as I’d read the original book in which it is based.

My only complaint is that the text seems kind of small and could potentially be hard for some individuals to read. Otherwise, it is pure perfection and I look forward to reading the rest of the series as they release as graphic novels!

I highly recommend this book for anyone that enjoys graphic novels and historical fiction. It is well worth the time spent reading it! ( )

Students can read these novels highly supported with graphics to help fill in the setting of the story. This is a book that is part of a collection of graphic novels on historical fiction. This is also available as a novel. ( )
