Around the World in Eighty Days

by Giada Francia (Adaptor), Francesca Rossi (Illustrations), Jules Verne

A timeless classic comes alive with Francesca Rossi's gorgeous illustrations, now in a smaller format.

Some novels are considered classics of children literature, read by numerous generations of young readers who made them immortal. That is the case with Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne, a true prototype for many later adventure tales. The thrilling race against time of eccentric Phileas Fogg and his manservant Passepartout, having to run around the planet to win a bet, is here presented in a modern and original way, thanks to the splendid drawings by Francesca Rossi, an artist able to capture the vivid atmosphere of the story.

[Mihaela · Rating 2 out of 5]

Varianta in limba romană este mult prea condensată. Se pierde mult din farmecul cartii. Ma așteptam la altceva atunci când am comandat cartea pt fiica msa dr 5 ani și jumătate. 20.000 de leghe sub mari e mult mai reușită, povestea mai incitanta.

Snaha skrátiť klasickú verneovku pre mladšieho čitateľa nevyšla. Príbeh je zvláštny, útržkovitý, nedrží to pokope a ani tie ilustrácie to nedokázali zachrániť, skôr prispeli k tomu, že celá kniha pôsobí veľmi nesúrodo.

O adaptare reușită, ilustrată a clasicei cărți ,,Ocolul pământului în 80 de zile".
Ilustrațiile sunt reușite, completează frumos povestea.
