What Was Built to Be a Ship of Dreams?: The Titanic Synopsis

Discover the story of the Titanic's ill-fated voyage through three diverse perspectives of survivors in this affecting graphic novel by Let Me Out author Emmett Nahil and award-winning illustrator Shazleen Khan.

Presenting Who HQ Graphic Novels: an exciting addition to the #1 New York Times bestselling Who Was? series!

Follow the journeys of Syrian Lebanese siblings Jamilah and Ilyas Yarred, the Haitian French Laroche family, and American socialite Margaret Brown as history's most famous ship heads toward disaster.

This gripping narrative is brought to life by atmospheric full-color illustrations that will transport readers to that fateful wreck.
