RMS TITANIC

RMS Titanic departing Southampton on 10 April 1912
RMS Titanic was a passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean on 15 April 1912 after colliding with an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. The sinking of Titanic caused the deaths of 1,517 people in one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history. She was the largest ship afloat at the time of her maiden voyage. One of three Olympic class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line, she was built between 1909–11 by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast. She carried over 2,200 people – 1,316 passengers and about 900 crew.

2012 marks the 100th anniversary of Titanic’s maiden voyage and this selection of books, available from http://www.baker-taylor.co.uk/covers the history of the great event & tragic ending of this amazing ship:

Wimpy Kid finds 'love is in the air' in book seven

Jeff Kinney announces that the next instalment of his bestselling Wimpy Kid series will feature a love interest. Romance is set to enter the world of Wimpy Kid Greg Heffley in the latest instalment of Jeff Kinney's smash hit series, which is due out in November. The illustrated Wimpy Kid books, peppered with handwritten notes and cartoon illustrations, trace the daily trials and tribulations of computer game nerd Greg. The first novel, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, was voted best children's book of the decade by Blue Peter viewers earlier this month, beating Harry Potter, while the sixth novel in the series, Cabin Fever, was the bestselling children's book of 2011 in the UK, spending eight weeks at number one and selling one copy every four seconds in its first week on sale. With worldwide sales topping 75m copies to date, Puffin is predicting that the seventh book will be one of the bestselling titles of 2012. Its publication was announced yesterday by Kinney at the biggest annual event in children's publishing, the Bologna Children's Book Fair. Little has been given away yet about the book's contents – even its title remains a secret – but a teaser image reveals that "love is in the air", while Kinney told publishers in Bologna that the storyline would centre around a school dance, and a love interest would enter the picture.
