Around the World


This graphic novel is about 3 world travelers who were inspired in some way by Jules Verne’s Around the World in 80 Days. One adventurer, Nellie Bly, meets Verne in France and is racing to beat the 80-day goal while writing for a global publication. Another tourist rides his bicycle across the globe while a seasoned sailor travels the world in a restored yacht. But neither of them have a deadline.

A very informative biography of globetrotter from the turn of the century. This type of book is what makes reading and learning fun- not just for kids, but enjoyable for the young at heart of all ages.

I highly recommend.

WORTH CONSUMING!

Rating: 10 out of 10 stars.
