by Gary Crew & illustrated by Bruce Whatley. Not a living pig, but a musical toy carried on board by a passenger, Maxixe (pronounced Mash-eesh, though readers are left to look that up for themselves) describes how its simple dance tune helped to keep up the spirits of a lifeboat full of children through that tragic night to remember. In Whatley’s crisply detailed reconstructions, the smiling white piglet seems to glow in its owner’s arms as it’s carried through Titanic’s palatial rooms, past elegantly dressed passengers, and then into a boat crowded with fearful-looking children.
