Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea: Illustrated Abridged Children Classic English Novel With Review Questions (Hardback)

The book is nicely printed with what feels like good paper, and I like the texture of the cover. However, it is very large and very thin, which for me makes it somewhat uncomfortable to read sitting down in bed. That said, it would be fantastic if you were studying and taking notes on the book - the pages of a lot more extra room than normal, and the text is quite large, making it easier to find were you were when taking notes. Would recommend for people looking to take notes/study and to those who prefer larger font sizes.

やはり原作は素晴らしい！！ノーチラス号に乗って世界中のありとあらゆる海洋生物・植物を目の当たりにする。それも学術名で延々と解説付き！？翻訳者はお気の毒！普通の読者は適当に読み飛ばせばよし。なにせヴェルヌは完全に博物学オタク。因みに19世紀は博物学の黄金時代で、その熱気と興奮が本作で大爆発！当時の最新の知識を詰め込んだらしいが、現在からみると変なのもあって興味深い。例えば、マッコウクジラは右目しか見えない！？？勿論、筋の展開も面白い：スエズの海底トンネル、アトランティス、極点到達、巨大イカとの死闘等々てんこ盛り！？ノーチラス号の性能も水中速度時速40キロとか一万メートル潜航可能とか、ぶっ飛んで楽しい。因みにsignet版カバー写真には米国最初の原潜がノーチラスと命名されたことを思わせる原潜の写真があしらわれているが、これは形状から現役のヴァージニア級攻撃型原潜か！謎のノモ船長がどうなったか気になります（次作のThe Mysterious Islandを参照）。

状態もきれいで良かったです！

Es una traducción al inglés de un libro orinal en francés. Son 460 páginas en letra grande. Esperaba algo más manejable. Por ejemplo, la mitad de páginas en letra mucho más pequeña.

This was a good read. I enjoyed it to the fullest. It was like, I myself was on this underwater tour of the world on Captain Nemo's submarine. The book is worthy of being called a true classic. This can also be a perfect gift to a young kid who enjoys reading. A light and easy read with loads of information about the ocean and earth's geography. I kept consulting my map for various places that the author talks about and kept Googling for different fishes that the author mentioned. A perfect enjoyable read. Also, the quality of the pages and the binding of the book is good for the price point.
