Around the World in 80 Days is an adaptation of Jules Verne 's classic - written at A1 (beginner) level so you understand 95 % of the text from page one. You read a real story in French, not a textbook - and still absorb hundreds of new words. 100 % of the original plot, zero shortcuts.
Phileas Fogg, a fastidious English gentleman, makes an audacious wager to circumnavigate the world in eighty days. With his new, spirited valet Passepartout, Fogg embarks on a meticulously planned, thrilling global dash. Their journey is fraught with peril and pursued by Detective Fix, who mistakenly suspects Fogg of bank robbery. They face perilous delays, cultural obstacles, and even rescue an Indian princess, Aouda, whose presence adds unexpected warmth.
Everything you need in one book- Margin dictionary: Translations of the hardest words right in the margin - you stay in the story and absorb new vocabulary naturally, no dictionary needed.
- Exercises: After each chapter: crosswords, gap-fills and anagrams at A1 level - new words stick because you practise them right after reading.
- Mobile app: QR codes after each chapter unlock interactive games in the mobile app - learn on the go!
- Flashcards: Ready-made flashcards at the end of the book - cut out and review. The system based on the forgetting curve means words you learn stay with you permanently.
- 100% of the original story, zero shortcuts: You read the same story as in the original - just written at A1 (beginner) level. No other graded reader series can say that.
- Vocabulary from a 2-billion-word corpus: You don't memorise words from 19th-century dictionaries - you learn only what is truly needed in everyday communication.
- Complete learning system in one book: Margin dictionary, chapter exercises, flashcards and mobile app - everything you need without buying extra materials.
- The only series 100% backed by science: Other series claim to be effective. We can prove it: every design decision stems from scientific research. Thousands of readers have verified this.
- Available in every format: E-book (PDF, ePub, MOBI), paperback and hardcover - choose the format that suits you best.
Pentecost Publishing is the only publisher that creates graded readers based 100% on scientific research into foreign language acquisition. Every decision - from vocabulary selection to exercise design - stems from four key scientific methods:
- Comprehensible Input Hypothesis: You learn fastest through exposure to slightly more advanced language than your current level (e.g., by reading this book).
- Forgetting Curve: The more often you review a word, the slower you forget it - so cut out the flashcards after each chapter and repeat!
- Self-Determination Theory: Doing interesting things in a foreign language, like going on a date, watching a series, or reading this book, greatly speeds up learning.
- Lexical Approach: The faster you learn vocabulary, the faster you'll understand the language. Grammar is secondary and will come naturally.
