Brief Summary and how I would use this book with students: This book is about a boy named Jack and a girl named Annie who have a magical tree house that allows them to go back in time to experience different historical moments and solve mysteries. This particular mission takes place on the Titanic and they are helping a boy named William and a girl named Lucy to get on a lifeboat so that they will survive. I could use this story to teach my children about the Titanic. It would allow the students to understand what happened on a more personal level that they could relate to.
