Very good telling of the Endurance saga

I am a huge fan of human perseverance stories, and I have several grown-up books on the shipwreck of the Endurance. "Escape from the Ice" is a book for kids that tells the story at the level of a 3rd or 4th grader, without talking down to kids, but without too much scary stuff. This book plus the photo book by Caroline Alexander will really captivate your young explorer.
