Reach for this book when your child starts asking big questions about history, tragedy, or how the world works during a crisis. It is an ideal choice for the young researcher who is transitioning from picture books to longer narratives and wants the facts behind one of the world's most famous mysteries. While the sinking of the Titanic is inherently heavy, this book approaches the subject with a balanced lens that focuses on engineering feats and acts of bravery just as much as the loss of life. Through clear explanations and illustrations, the book covers the ship's construction, the social class divides of the era, and the modern-day discovery of the wreck. It helps parents bridge the gap between curiosity and empathy, providing a safe space to discuss how human error and courage coexist. It is perfectly pitched for middle-grade readers who are ready for honest historical accounts without the sensationalism often found in adult media.
