Journey to the Center of the Earth (Dover Thrift Editions)

Got a kiddo who loves to read. Books can be pricey so I love how affordable this is. He enjoyed this book well. Easy to read. Writing is clear. Pages are neat. Nice and compact for on the go. Pleased with purchase.

Very affordable and tells the Tale! The artwork on the cover is awesome!

A classic. Read 50 years ago when I was 8. Was awesome to introduce a classic Verne to my great nephew

My favorite movie turns out to be a very interesting book because of what is left in and left out of the 1959 film. A lot of Verne's ideas and imagination are present in the movie which was a life changing experience for me at eight years old. I fell into a lifelong love affair with movies. Too bad television is better than the movies now. "Interstellar" like "Journey" inspired me. Interestingly, the Pat Boone character is the narrator in the book. Well written script by Billy Wilder's former co-writer whose name I can't remember right now (Was it I. A. L. Diamond?) By all means see the movie and read the book. It's free on Netflix and James Mason is great.

My favorite book of all time. Funny, and interesting. Cant believe I’ve never read Jules Verne Before.

I recently purchased this item and I'm extremely pleased with my purchase. The item was exactly as described, and I appreciate the accuracy of the product listing. Additionally, the price was fair and justified for the quality I received. I'm a satisfied customer and would confidently recommend this product to others.

I've wanted to read Journey To The Center of The Earth for quite a while now. Picked up the Dover Thrift addition, and I am very happy with it. Pretty cheap book, but only price wise. Besides the lower price, it's a great book. I really enjoyed the story, and how well it is written. I can now fully appreciate why this book is a classic.

I ordered these books for my grandmother, who is incredibly leery of purchasing things online. Thank you for making this a positive experience, as i never would have heard the end of it! Made a perfect birthday gift for my brother.

A letra é pequena, mas pelo preço está ok.

本の価値は、内容なので、読める状態である限り、基本的に問題無しと思います。可なり古びてはいましたが、読むのに全く支障無しと思います。孫が喜ぶでしょう。

Buen libro , la letra muy chiquita para mí, pero a mi adolecente le gustó .

Jules Verne is one of the fathers of modern science fiction and fantasy. Which is why I wanted to give the story a try. If you are the type of person who shy's away from classic literature due to it's heavy subject matter or outdated stories and concepts. I can assure you that you have no fear of that with Journey to the Center of the Earth. Forget for a moment that we are in the era of space travel for rich space tourists, satellites and space stations circling the earth. Think to when this book was written, no cars, no planes, people traveled by steam engine and sailing ship. It's the context of Jules Verne's real world of the 1800's that makes this story all the more impressive. I found the first ten pages difficult to get into because of the language structure. People spoke and wrote differently over 120 years ago however, as I was drawn into the story I no longer took much notice of this. Journey to the Center of the Earth has a wonderful innocence about it. The gentil love affair between Axel and his betrothed, the stoic strengh and determination of the guide and the wonderment exhibited when they make their underground discoveries. I can say that you will not be dissapointed by this book. I think it would also be great for young readers (12-13). It has drama, excitement and romance all without being too long. Well worth my $4.00

Livro ok, capa mole e tamanho pequeno porém atende perfeitamente o objetivo da leitura
