A story of a boy, his teddy bear, and their escape from the Titanic's sinking.

Much more than just a Titanic story, this offers a look at one privileged child's life in the days before plane travel and vaccines & antibiotics. The text was written by one of the survivors, the mother of the boy who loved Polar, shortly after the event, and is accompanied by reproductions of lots of photos of the family and their adventures.
