Brief description: Allison Lassieur has never had pop-star dreams, but she once sang in a choir that went on a multi-state tour on the way to Walt Disney World. Today she's an award-winning author of more than 150 history and non-fiction books about everything from Ancient Rome to the International Space Station. Her books have received several Kirkus starred reviews and Booklist recommendations, and her historical novel Journey to a Promised Land was awarded the 2020 Kansas Library Association Notable Book Award, and Library of Congress Great Reads Book selection. Allison lives in upstate New York with her husband, daughter, a scruffy, loveable mutt named Jingle Jack, and more books than she can count.

Review Quotes: Can see this appealing to boys and reluctant readers. Artwork and (3d?) renderings do much to show what it was like aboard the ship, and maps as well as black and white illustrations offer additional material to "read." the text itself is a little straightforward and simple, but readers going in should be well aware of the situation and they are given stories of people according to class and location onboard. a good revamp of the choose your own adventure series, looking forward to other titles. As usual, capstone title stands out above others!-- "NetGalley"
