Rating: Summary: This was a VERY good book!!!!! Review: This was a very good book. It is basically about a Professer Hardwigg and his nephew Harry who with their guide Hans try to make it to the center of the earth in the footsteps of an Arne Saknuessem. They don't make it to the actual center of the earth, but they do come very, very close. Until they get blown out of a volcano! This book was very interesting. There was never a dull moment. I really LOVED this book.

Rating: Summary: The best sci-fi adventure book is this Verne masterpiece! Review: When I first read this book I was thrilled! It only gets better when you re-read it. Verne uses excellent descriptions so that readers can walk right along side Axel, his uncle and Hans on an expedition to reach the center of the globe! This is a novel siuation that no "traveler" ever recounted before so there are many surprises. The numerous adventures and use of first person narritive highten the supense. Fans of science fiction and of great lituature will enjoy this book.
Rating: Summary: Wonderful book! Great Description! Review: I personally thought that this book was great! I has so much detail and something is happening almost all of the time, wether the expolers make a wrong turn or if Axel (Harry) finds some new complaint! Even though it may get a little bit boring in a few parts, keep reading and then excitement will burst through. I had to read this for school and I am definately glad that I did!
Rating: Summary: It's an awesome book Review: I've only read 70 pages of the book & I can't stop reading it.I'm grounded becasue I didn't stop reading it at 9:30 like she told me to. I encourage readers from ages 10 & up to read it.
Rating: Summary: A classroom pleaser. Review: I'm a teacher of 32, 11 year olds - some are reluctant readers who have never read a novel before. We read this book together as the school bought multiple copies. We graphed an excitement level graph to keep track of the adventure. Our graph started at about a 3/10 but maintained a 10/10 for quite some time. The children and I really enjoyed the adventure - our imaginations were working overtime. The reluctant readers are ready for another adventure. "Good on you, Jules Verne - and Wishbone."
