"Praise for I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic, 1912 (I Survived Graphic Novel #1): ""The first installment of Tarshis' sprawling prose disaster oeuvre for young readers is reimagined in visually interesting full-color comic panels that support its recognizable thrilling pace and convenient twists.
