LOOK INSIDE
Ло́ндон, 1872
Позво́льте мне нача́ть с представле́ния таи́нственного англи́йского джентльме́на по и́мени Фи́леас Фогг.
Большинство́ люде́й ма́ло зна́ют о нём, но так как он ка́ждый день де́лает одно́ и то же, не́которые лю́ди ду́мают, что зна́ют о нём всё. Он о́чень краси́вый, и он настоя́щий джентльме́н. Он, безусло́вно, бога́т, но никто́ не зна́ет, как он зарабо́тал де́ньги.
Он когда́-нибу́дь был в друго́й стране́? Он мо́жет показа́ть мно́го стран на ка́рте ми́ра и зна́ет са́мые невероя́тные ве́щи о них. Возмо́жно, он когда́-то путеше́ствовал, но не́которые наста́ивают на том, что он не покида́л Ло́ндон мно́го лет.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
WAYNE WALKER – USA
Again, another excellent reader by Kristina. I had never actually read this story in English. I had only seen old movie versions of it. So the nature of the journey around the world and the why of it was all new to me. Kristina always helps with the truly unusual words in the vocabulary of the story. I think I probably had more trouble wrapping my head around the main characters’ first name (Fileas) than I did with any of the Russian. I kept wondering if that was a Russian word I should know rather than a name.
I’m slow sometimes. ? But Fileas wasn’t and this book wasn’t. It’s the right level to read in a single sitting. Two thumbs up!
