The Endurance: Shackleton's Perilous Expedition in Antarctica Hardcover – February 1, 2000

Great illustrations. Well written and informative book about Shackleton’s epic journey to Antarctica. My 3rd grader enjoyed it. And used it to help him with a history/explorer project.

The message in giving the book was to teach about fortitude and strength of character. The adult version is my all time favorite book. Such an inspirational read.

the most amazing true adventure. i have given a few to children and each time they are gah-gah about the story.

Exciting true story of Shackleton's expedition to the South Pole. Marvelous watercolors on every page bring life to the amazing true story of shipwreck and rescue.Ages 5-10. The 3rd and 4th graders will read it themselves; younger ones will enjoy the pictures while listening.

beautiful illustrations and kid-friendly language make this a really useful addition to any classroom survival story collection . . .
