Omschrijving
First paperback edition of one of the bestselling Save the Story titles: a teenage boy and his uncle embark on the adventure of their lives
Dashingly illustrated... Fresh, idiosyncratic and winning... Dave Eggers takes nicely judged liberties with Jules Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea as Captain Nemo but stays true to its spirit. There is nonstop entertainment on board his submarine - the writing is such fun
Literary, adult authors retell classics (with terrific illustrations) for a younger generation... includes... Dave Egger's crisply gung-ho Captain Nemo
Marvellously written... engrossing
Handsomely illustrated... Offers younger readers vivid, accessible first encounters with some literary heavyweights
This magnificently retold story will bewitch with irresistible allure, and open the path to many memorable adventures
A children's book of the year 2013
Perfect for readers old, young or in-between
Loyal to the original but given a new twist in the process. Oh, and lavishly illustrated too
Deliciously artful... the best kind of story
Beautifully illustrated... A essential read
A sparkling reworking of a classic tale
