20,000 Leagues Under The Sea (Fast Track Classics Book/Cd)

Description

This wonderful series is a quick way into a range of exciting stories, from the chilling tale of "Frankenstein", to the gripping adventure of "Treasure Island" and the powerful animal story of "Call of the Wild". Fast-moving and accessible, each story is a shortened, dramatically illustrated version of the classic novel, which loses none of the strength and flavour of the original. It is available for the first time with an accompanying audio CD. "20,000 Leagues Under The Sea", by Jules Verne, was published in 1869. A mysterious sea monster is attacking shipping, and Arronax, a scientist, joins an expedition to find and destroy the monster. Instead, he becomes a prisoner of proud and ruthless Captain Nemo, captain of amazing submarine The Nautilus. The story has a full glossary at the back of the book and comprehension, vocabulary and language activities can be found on our websites.
