Perhaps this is because he lives with his eccentric but brilliant uncle, the geologist and adventurer Professor Lidenbrock. Usually, his uncle s adventures are odd, but not completely insane. That is until a runic note falls from a text that Professor Lidenbrock is reading.

The note becomes the key to a quest that may lead them the very center of the earth. The pair departs immediately for Iceland, hiring Hans Bjelke as a guide. They follow the instructions on the note and do indeed find a passage into the earth. There, they experience a number of wonders and frights far beyond what they have ever imagined. They pass through a chamber with flammable gas and use acoustic phenomenon to talk to each other while they are miles apart. They continue on and find an ocean.

They cross the ocean, only to witness two dinosaurs attacking each other. Then, they see a herd of dinosaurs walk by a prehistoric man over twelve feet tall. The travelers begin to leave, only to be stopped by a caved-in tunnel. They blast their way through and are rushed out of the volcano in a pool of water and magma. They return to their home in Germany and are greeted with joy and treated famously. While this story is indeed a classic and truly belongs on library shelves, only the most die-hard fantasy fans will love this book. Verne s descriptions and characterizations are wonderful, but he is definitely not a writer for the casual reader.

2008, Puffin Classics, $4.99. Ages 8 up.(PUBLISHER: Puffin (London:), PUBLISHED: 2008.)Professional Recommendation/Review #2: From the Publisher: Journey to the Center of the Earth is the story of Professor Lindenbrock, his nephew Axel and their quest for the secrets contained at the earth's core. Led by Hans, their Icelandic guide, Lindenbrock and Axel descend deeper into the planet than anyone has ever gone before.but will they make it back to the surface alive?Response to Two Professional Reviews: I like the first review. I think it is very detailed and captures key events in the novel.

However, I don’t really like the second review. While it is accurate, I feel that it is lacking detail.Evaluation of Literary Elements: The word choice in the novel helps create suspense and anticipation in the novel.Consideration of Instructional Application: I would use this novel to teach about adventure and science fiction novels.

I want to use this novel to help get students interested in adventure and science fiction novels because they can be a good escape for students and even help foster ideas of pieces that they would like to write. Journey to the center of the earth takes place in the mid eighteen hundreds. Otto the main character discovers the work of a philosopher from the sixteen hundreds who was from iceland. In this work Otto starts to believe that the center of the earth is not a hot liquid but another environment that in habitable Otto starts to think that it is possible to travel there and he starts to develop a expedition to the center of the earth.

In this work Otto starts to believe that the center of the earth is not a hot liquid but another environment that in habitable Otto starts to think that it is possible to travel there and he starts to develop a expedition to the center of the earth. Otto and his accompany set off to Iceland where you can supposedly travel down to this underworld. When they get to Iceland they hire a guide to take them to this inactive volcano so that they can start there decent to the center of the earth. They do indeed make it to the center of the earth and it is a habitable place. They find all kinds of life in the center of the earth such as plants and fish they even find evidence of a person.

In attempt to discover more they blow up part of a wall and they end up getting sucked into an active volcano area. You will have to read to see what happens from thereI would rate this book eight out of ten. I am not really a fan of science fiction books or so I thought but this one is not bad. There isn’t really anything or anyone in the book that is trying to play the role of god like in a lot of science fiction books. However the book does question what we think we already know. Everyone “knows” that the center of earth is just liquid magma, but is there really anyway to be sure of what’s down there if no one has actually been down there and come back? I ended up liking this book more than I thought I was going to because of the fact that it wasn’t really aliens and taking over the planet it was more of an adventure and discovering possibilities of what else might be out there even though we think we already know.

There are some parts of the book that get kind of slow but I would definitely recommend pushing through because it gets exciting. Supposedly, Jules Verne is, in France, considered a travel and adventure writer, and is considered one of the great French authors, along with Zola, Hugo, and Dumas. Although I dont consider him one of the greatest authors Ive read, I have no doubt that Jules Verne is a great author, and well deserving of his classic status. The splendor of his writing may have been lost in translation.His novels are amazingly inventive creations, a mix of science and fantasy.

I am not generally interested in science fiction, but Jules Verne I can read and enjoy. Many name him the father of science fiction, and I definitely can see him as an influence on later writers. In general, I really like Jules Verne’s books because they feel like classics “light.” The stories are simply fun, and the prose is not challenging to read for the most part (although some of his book gets science heavy in parts).

As for the science fiction aspects of some of his novels, they truly do make for a fun adventure!A Journey to the Center of the Earth (originally published 1864 in French) was our book for this month’s book club, and I really enjoyed it, although I don't consider it a favorite classic or my favorite Verne novel (I've now read three). I picked this up simply because I have not read anything by Verne in forty years, and I was wondering if I would still enjoy his work.As it happened, I found this one a bit weak - more predictable and almost formulaic than many of Verne's other novels. A quick read, but a bit more painfully and glaringly dated than works like 'Around the World in 80 Days' or 'An Antarctic Mystery', in which the story more effectively compensates for the holes in the science.I would recommend it for a young I picked this up simply because I have not read anything by Verne in forty years, and I was wondering if I would still enjoy his work.As it happened, I found this one a bit weak - more predictable and almost formulaic than many of Verne's other novels.
