During a pleasant sailing trip, Lord and Lady Glenarvan find a message in a bottle in the stomach of a shark. The missive is from one Captain Grant, whose ship has gone down at sea. But the message is damaged, and the location of the castaways is a mystery. With only a few clues in hand, they head off in search of the survivors accompanied by the missing captain's children, an absent minded scholar, and a crew of stalwart sailors. Little do they know that their journey will take them on dangerous adventures to the farthest reaches of the globe... <i>The Children of Captain's Grant</i> was first published in 1868 as part of Jules Verne's remarkable fifty-four-book series <i>Extraordinary Voyages</i>. Now a beautifully adapted graphic novel by Alexis Nesme, it will sweep a new audience from Europe to the American to Australia and beyond, encountering people, creatures, and landscapes around the world.
