  • Titanic information
Very influential

  • Boy who refused to read EVERYTHING loved this book!
My husband and I both LOVE to read and we never worried that our son would grow to enjoy it, too. Yet by the time 3rd grade rolled around, we had a child who HATED reading books. The bookcase in our living room grew heavier with more enticing tales and he wouldn't read a single page in any of them. He enjoyed the books I read aloud to him very much but he simply refused to read on his own. "Diary of a Whimpy Kid!" everyone shouted. He wouldn't touch them. "Hatchet!" they urged. We read it aloud after he refused to begin it on his own. Then someone said "Buy the four dollar 'I Survived' series and trust me, he will read from then on." Yeah, okay. Since my son had recently shown interest in the Titanic after watching a documentary, I bought this book used off Amazon just to see if it would spark his interest. It arrived in the mail and he was happy when I told him the package was for him. He opened it and was curious. He actually read a page. Now, I'll be honest. The book sat for months untouched. Then one day he decided to look at it again, all on his own. He read a few more pages. Next thing we knew he was refusing to turn off his light and go to sleep because he was reading. He was ignoring my requests for him to put away his laundry because he was reading. He wouldn't stop and eat breakfast because he was reading. HE WAS READING! It worked!!! I'm very grateful to the person who first told me to try this series. It grab's a child's interest and holds on so they keep turning those pages. If you are in the same boat that we just got out of with a boy who won't read, consider trying this book! ... show more

  • Excitement from the first page!
Lauren Tarshis is the master of drawing her readers in from the very first page. This book did not disappoint! My 3rd through 5th grade students and I read it over the course of two weeks. We could have read it faster but I wanted to intersperse the reading with lessons on the ship and it's sinking, the geography and the science. It inspired quite a bit of explorational learning and encouraged my kiddos to choose new I Survived books to continue reading. This series is a gem, even for reluctant readers! ... show more

  • Great Book for Kids Who Love History!
One of my daughter's (2nd grade) friends was reading and I Survived book and my daughter saw and was intrigued. So, we got her one about a subject she was already a little interested in (the Titanic). The book was intense at times, but not so much that it scared her too badly or made her want to quit reading the book. It has sparked some questions and discussions, so I love that it's been a catalyst for ongoing learning. We will definitely be looking at more I Survived books, although with caution, because she read the excerpt from the next book that was included in the back of this one and the excerpt alone was too scary for her. So, in conclusion, if you have a kid that is into history, this is probably a great book (and series) for them. However, if that kid frightens easily or is prone to nightmares, it might be worth reading it together. ... show more
