Bookroo's summary

Phileas Fogg, a mysterious Englishman, bets his fortune on a whirlwind journey around the world in just eighty days. Accompanied by his loyal valet Passepartout, Fogg races against time, facing unexpected challenges and relentless pursuit by Detective Fix, who suspects him of a major crime. Will Fogg's audacious gamble pay off, or will he lose everything in this high-stakes adventure? Discover a tale of courage, cunning, and the relentless quest to defy the impossible.

From the publisher

Jules Verne’s classic novel, Around the World in Eighty Days, is a true prototype for the adventure story. This new illustrated abridged version captures Phileas Fogg’s thrilling race around the globe in a fresh, modern, and original way. Will he, and his manservant Passepartout, beat the clock and win their bet? Francesca Rossi’s splendid illustrations bring the tale’s many landscapes and vivid atmosphere to life.
