At 11:40 p.m. on April 14, 1912, the fate of the world's most famous ship was sealed when the lookout on the luxury liner, RMS Titanic, spotted an iceberg in the ship's path in the North Atlantic. By 2:00 a.m., the ship had started its slide into the frigid waters, carrying close to 1,500 people to a watery grave. In T is for Titanic: A Titanic Alphabet, husband-and-wife writing team Michael and Debbie Shoulders sift through the stories, documents, and artifacts surrounding the famous ship, giving a "you-are-there" view to one of the world's greatest disaster stories. Young readers are invited to walk down the Grand Staircase, find a berth in secondclass quarters, or imagine telegraph operator Jack Phillips's first distress signal. From the groundbreaking engineering and technology that went into the ship's design to the poignant, personal stories of the people on board, T is for Titanic brings it all to vivid life.Debbie and Michael Shoulders coauthored G is for Gladiator: An Ancient
Rome Alphabet and D is for Drum: A Native American Alphabet.
