Titanic Crossing is by Barbara Williams. Albert Trask, his widowed mother, his younger sister, and his uncle are returning home to Virginia after the death of his father. They happen to book passage on the Titanic - oopsie. The book is a rather slow read and Williams devotes very little time to the actual sinking. The ending is very touching as young Albert must come to terms with his losses and grow up. All in all a pleasant, if slow historical fiction read.
Ratings: 6th grade - 5 out of 10.
