Wait, what!? A picture book on Miss Remmers' Review!!

Yes, folks — today I am reviewing a 34 page picture book! With the centennial of the Titanic this year, I am on a binge (or so it seems). Anyway, as this the first picture book I've ever reviewed — I didn't really know what to expect. It was definitely quick and, while I couldn't see the pictures in color (old Nook), the pictures looked great too! The story moved really fast, but I guess that can be expected?

My favorite part of this story is definitely the end; turns out our protagonist really lived and survived the Titanic. I don't want to give anything away, but it's definitely the end of the story that has the most heart.^

^No pun intended as to Heart of the Ocean, Celine Dion, Titanic 1997.
