After Reading Eyewitnesses saw Titanic 's stern rising high into the air as the ship tilted down in the water. It was said to have reached an angle of 30–45degrees, [172] "revolving apparently around a centre of gravity just astern of midships", as Lawrence Beesley later put it. [173] Many survivors described a great noise, which some attributed to the boilers exploding. [174] Beesley described it as "partly a groan, partly a rattle, and partly a smash, and it was not a sudden roar as an explosion would be: it went on successively for some seconds, possibly fifteen to twenty". He attributed it to "the engines and machinery coming loose from their bolts and bearings, and falling through the compartments, smashing everything in their way". [173]The text is repetitive and predictable - encouraging the child to engage with the narrative and explore "reading". It also rhymes and has a nice easy rhythm - again encouraging all those good literacy things. By reading books about protagonists who have overcome challenges, we are oftentimes encouraged to do the same. The right book can motivate you to never give up and stay positive, regardless of whether it’s a romance novel or a self-help book. Read the book, Who Sank the Boat. While reading the story, encourage the children to make predictions about the different animals and whether or not they will sink the boat. Marshall, Logan (1912).
