A fast-paced, interactive adventure series for kids, featuring death-defying moments in history. This time featuring the Titanic!



The sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912, remains the most famous maritime disaster in history. Young readers make decisions and determine their own survival by joining twelve-year-old Alexander Hale aboard the doomed ocean liner in Decide & Survive: Titanic.

Don't forget: YOU, the reader, are in the driver's seat! This time it's 1912, and you're twelve-year-old Alexander Hale, a first-class passenger on the maiden voyage of the world's most celebrated ship. Along the way, you can chase a crew boy through the hidden corridors below decks, uncover a conspiracy hidden in a leather satchel, open the locked gates trapping steerage passengers below, or help the wireless operators send one last distress signal. But when the iceberg looms ahead, every choice matters, and not every path leads to a lifeboat!

With each page turn YOU decide which way the story unravels. This book like no other—to be used in a variety of ways—challenges puzzle-solving readers and ignites a love of history for life. The perfect gift or educational book, slyly written as an interactive narrative adventure, will delight and enthrall avid and reluctant readers with its energy and excitement.

As an added educational bonus, extensive backmatter includes a timeline, information about class divisions aboard the Titanic, survival rates by ticket class, profiles of real people from the disaster, surprising facts, details about the maritime safety laws the sinking changed forever, and a bibliography.
