Serial Stories - Summer/Fall 2004



Summer reading with the Gazette!

New short story by local author Jane Yolen Disas-tour, Inc.

12 chapters, reading level 3rd- 4th grade, read aloud all ages.

Sail back through time with Mr. K.'s students on their class trip to the Titanic. This story is marvelously different with the plot unfolding as we read the personal journals of the teacher and his students as they experience history first-hand. Readers will be on the edge of their seats as one of the students disappears on the ship just as the iceberg hits. Will the others get there in time to scoop him off the deck before the disaster deadline? Readers will love this original work by this world famous, award-winning LOCAL children's author.
