Historical
fiction about the Titanic, set in Skippack, Pennsylvana
The news of the sinking of the Titanic shocked the world. In Skippack, Alberta and her family wanted to find a way to help out, especially when they learned that some of the victims and survivors were other Pennsylvanians. This fictional story describes the way many Americans reached out and is an exciting glimpse at some true events in small town America in the early 1900s. Meet Chum, a most adventurous dog; the Shaffer children, full of fun and even a bit mischievous at times; and the town residents, who share the news and join together when the need arises.
The authors grew up in the town of Skippack, Pennsylvania, fascinated by the story of the sinking of the Titanic, prompted by watching the two grand movies of the 1950s that told this story, Titanic and A Night to Remember. Fittingly, these movies were watched while curled up on Nana Shaffer’s couch—otherwise known as Mom Shaffer in this tale. Stories told by grandparents, aunts, uncles, and parents about life in this small town and on the farm left their impression, and it was just a matter of time until these tales made their way into print.
