A great book to explore!!!

Do you know anything about the Titanic or the person named Alexander the Great? Well in the book The Explores Gazette by Melissa Hechshen. This book has many stories from a newspaper. This book is so amazing and interesting. It can help you understand some things that you probably did not know before. One story I loved was about the Titanic. Here's a glimpses at one story: The Titanic was a ship that left New England Headed for North America. The ship held 2,223 people that were on board. There were 899 crew members and there were 3,300 rooms. Titanic was nickname "The Ship of Dreams". The dinner plates and China glasses were never used. The ship offered luxury things to people. Rooms were trimmed with oriental rugs, and fireplaces; diners ate meals on fine china. Passengers could enjoy swimming in the pool. After 73 years, "The Ship of Dreams" (Titanic) was found by a American and French invention called the Argo. The second story I loved was the one about the first man on the moon. This story has so many details that it will tell the ending. Well Apollo 11 (eleven) held 4 (four) men. The fight took 4 (four) days to get to the moon. In 1969 the men flew there in the Apollo 11 (eleven). The were in space headed for the moon. So in my opinion I think you should read the book called The Explorers Gazette by Melissa Hechshen because you are going to love it.
