Around the world in eighty days

‘Today you can go round the world in eighty days,’ says Phileas Fogg. ‘Do it, 
and I pay you £20,000,’ says his friend Stuart.

This is the beginning of one of Jules Verne’s most exciting stories. Phileas 
Fogg must get back to London by December 21st or lose all his money. With the 
help of his servant, Passepartout, Fogg travels in many ways – from train to 
elephant – and he has some surprising adventures on the way.
