description: "Leroy," an impatient Irishman shouted, "if you don't start climbing, you'll die here." I took a deep breath and reached for the ladder. I put one hand above the other and pulled myself up. The ladder swung toward the ship. My cap fell into the ocean. My knees smashed against the hull. The rope ladder wrapped around my body when it swung away from the ship. A glove slipped off, and my left hand lost its grip on the rung. When I tried to catch the glove, my left wrist scraped against the rope. The skin ripped. Blood spurted out. I screamed. "What are you yelling about?" The Irishman hollered. "Climb, lad! Climb!" "I can't," I cried. Join Leroy and Mark on a Titanic adventure, which celebrates the courage and cleverness of children who pursue their dreams in the face of impossible odds.
