I read the book “Voyage On The Great Titanic” The Diary of Margaret Ann Brady, by Ellen Emerson White.
This book is about a girl named Margaret Ann Brady who lived in England, but everybody calls her Margie for short. She has an older brother named William, her mother died of a sickness and her dad died as well. Margie became an orphan living on the streets with her brother William.
