πΉI've just finished reading "Around the world..." and it's better than I remember it from my childhood.
πΉIf you enjoyed Jules Verne's book, you'll definitely enjoy the 1989 TV series biradcasted on NBC with Pierce Brosnan as Phileas Fogg and Peter Ustinov as detective Fix.
πΉI believe this TV series is far superior to the 1956 movie starring David Niven. It's also an excellent introduction to Verne and the late 19th century for students.
πΉI used this series for my students of low secondary school both for the English and History classes. They absolutely loved it! Q
πΉWe watched it for 3 weeks, we kept track of the characters'progress on a map and we also kept track of the various types of transportation the characters used. We also discussed the role of Britain as an Empire and the growing importance of the United States in the world.
