Summary: SOS Titanic`
Review: SOS Titanic is one of very few books that will leave you with a cliffhanger at the end of each chapter. the author, Eve Bunting, makes this book seem like you are actually on the Titanic. In April, 1912, the Titanic leaves the ship's dock in London, England to go to New York City with everyone thinking that this ship is unsinkable. Barry O'Neil, Mr.Scollins, Howard and Walty are the main characters who seach for some way to get out of the Titanic before the ship sinks and takes many, many people dow with it!
Howard, a first class gentelman, is very superstisios and belives that the titanic will end up like the Titan, a ship that hit an iceberg and sank. That was only in a book, but you never know what fantasy can come to life.Only time will tell. There are sixteen lifeboats on the Titanic an they can only fit about half the people on board, so how will they survive? Readers who have read this book thought that it should have a sequel since it is so popular and people love it. Also, the author uses such descriptions that it seems like you are actually inside of the book. SOS Titanic is the one and only book you should read for a historical fiction book report.

Summary: This was a bone chilling book!
Review: The adventures in S.O.S. Titanic were really exciting and bone chilling. It was about Barry O'Neil moving to New York to live with his mother. On the boat ride to America he bumps into the Flynn's his worst enemies. Barry's relatives have always hated the Flynn's because they were real trashy people. The Flynn's would wreck the O'Neil's property like scratch their carriage up and other types of vandalism also. The O'Neils still tried to be friends with the Flynns but they still held a grudge on them because the O'Neils had more money than them. They try to beat Barry up on the Titanic. Barry kept trying to avoid them but he had a crush on one of the Flynns sisters, Pegeen. He tries to meet her on the ship but the other Flynns kept appearing. That's when something amazing happens. Only a few will live.

Summary: Hmmm
Review: The beginning of this book was dull and was dull until they finally hit the iceberg. Even when it did hit the iceberg it seemed like nothing happened. I didn't like the main character and I didn't quite get what happened when there was a wave or something. Anyways the characters in the book predict the sinking to much. It seemed like Barry went back in time or something cause he knew it would sink! The people on the Titanic didn't think it would sink! Get a little more realistic!

Summary: The Unsinkable.............or not
Review: The book SOS Titanic was very exciting and put chills up my spine. Barry goes on the Titanic to live with his parents in New York. Barry travels with the Flynn boys and their sister Pegeen, who are all from Ireland. The boys are always hurting Barry because he had a crush on Pegeen. When the ship hit the iceberg chaos erupted. Barry couldn't find Pegeen and the boat was sinking rapidly. In the end it is love that helps them find each other. Once they finally get saved they are both happy and they realize that love is very powerful.I chose the book Titanic because I have always had an interest in the different point of views of the actual happening. Everybody always exaggerates the story, and makes it sound like a love story, but this book seemed to focus most on the action portion. I may like romantic movies, but never enjoyed romantic books. The action in this book kept me on the edge of my seat with all of the descriptive words. I wanted a book that made me feel like I was actually there and my friend Heidi told me that this is what I was looking for. I took the advice and read the book. That was one decision that I do not regret. My favorite part in this book was when Barry was looking over the deck to the poop deck to see Pegeen. He turned around because a man was looking at him and he hit a poll. The next thing he noticed was that his favorite glove was gone. He really wanted to go down and find the glove his grandpa gave him because it is important to him. While he was going down the steps the Flynn brothers saw him looking at Pegeen and they hurt him. Pegeen stood up to her brothers and helped Barry. She was so nice to Barry and they totally love each other.

Summary: Great story on historical fiction!
Review: The SOS Titanic is a heartwarming story based on the voyage of the ship Titanic. On April 10, 1912, the Titanic picked up voyagers from Queenstown, Ireland on its way to New York. Barry O'Neill, age 15, is the main character that will be reuniting with his parents in New York. On the voyage, Barry is watched over by Mr. Scollins, a jeweler who is opening a branch of his company in New York. The only other passengers that Barry knew were Jonnie, Frank, and Pegeen Flynn. Barry knew that Jonnie and Frank had been troublemakers in Queenstown, so in order for him to make it to New York safely that he must stay away from them.
While on the ship, Barry met many new people. The most important of his new friends were Mr. Watley and Pegeen. Mr. Watley was Barry's and Mr. Scollins cabin steward. Throughout the story, he and Barry became close friends. Pegeen is also a new friend. They met one night when Barry was watching the steerage passengers dancing and having a party. He accidentally dropped his grandfather's glove down below so he went to retrieve it. Frank and Jonnie saw him while he was trying to get it and they and started a fight. Pegeen retrieved the glove for Barry and sent word through Mr. Watley for Barry to meet her so she could return it. From that point on, Barry and Pegeen were friends.
One night, before Barry went to sleep, Mr. Watley confided in Barry that a disaster was going to happen during their voyage. As predicted, the Titanic collided with an iceberg in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean on April 15, 1912, just a few days after their voyage began.
The crew immediately began to load the lifeboats, first class women and children first. After much reluctance, people began to realize that the "Unsinkable Ship", was actually going to sink. Barry was able to leave the frantic scene to find Pegeen. After much searching through the flooded ship, he was able to find her where all the rest of the steerage passengers were.
Pegeen and Barry decided that the only way to live is to jump into the ice-cold water. After being separated for a moment, they manage to find each other and swim to an overturned lifeboat. They were exhausted, but just a few hours after the Titanic sank, the Carpathia came and rescued them. Pegeen and Barry both survive the journey to New York, each to start a new life.

Summary: Was really good if you are caught up in this Titanic stuff.
Review: The story is about a boy named Barry who is traveling on the Titanic to meet his parents in America. Also on the ship are his rivals the Flynns who are in steerage class. Barry is concerned about the Flynns when iceberg warnings start popping up. He is worried about the Flynns because he is in first class and they aren't. How can he help them when the ship hits an iceberg and starts to sink? Will he go down to steerage and try to save them? Or will he just leave them there? This was an overall pretty good book if you are caught up in all of the Titanic stuff everywhere. I liked the book because I love the story of Titanic.
