This review is from: DK Action Book: Discover the Titanic (Hardcover)

Now if you have a youngster in your midst and they get a sudden interest in the Ship Titanic. This book will help teach them the bases of what they need to know about the ship as far as the skeletal part of the knowledge base If you order it like how I have ordered it it also comes with a 3d model of the ship. I have not constructed the model yet and I don't even have the space to do such a thing but if you are a teacher and a fun loving teacher this book is the right thing to get your students. They will most likely have fun reading the book and putting the model together. I highly recommend this book and model for 3rd - 5th & 6th grade readers. Don't take my word for it. Go and buy it!
