‘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.

Pride and Prejudice , one of the most famous love stories of all time. With the arrival of eligible young men in their neighbourhood, the lives of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet and their five daughters are turned inside out and upside down. Pride encounters prejudice, upward-mobility confronts social disdain, and quick-wittedness challenges sagacity. 
Misconceptions and hasty judgements bring heartache and scandal, but eventually lead to true understanding, self-knowledge, and love.

Pride and Prejudice sets up an echo chamber of good feelings in which romantic love and the love of reading amplify each other.

The weather in England that summer had been so awful that Gerald’s mother sold the family house and took her children to live on the Mediterranean island of Corfu. Between lessons, the ten-year-old Gerald was free to walk round the sunny island and discover the wonderful people and animals living there.

This is the story of Gerald’s adventures with the fascinating animals of Corfu, and, of course, with his surprising family and their friends.
