Description
In London, 1872, a man named Phileas Fogg makes a bet with his friends that he can travel across the entire planet in eighty days. The wager? More than half his sizable fortune -- and the exact same amount of money that was stolen from a nearby bank a day earlier. Fogg hastily departs in the company of Passepartout, his personal attendant, on a journey that will take the two men all over the wide world by way of every known means of transportation. Little does Fogg know that a sly detective trails his every globetrotting step . . .
ReviewsI recommend this book to my teacher, Mrs. Willard, and to kids 8 to 12. Even though this book is short, it's a very good book with lots of adventure. I rate Around the World In 80 Days 5 stars!-- "Kids' Book Buzz/San Francisco Book Review"
