5.0

That was certainly an adventure which was made even more fun by Jim Dale’s narration. I would certainly recommend listening to this book instead of reading it since the words can come across as dry and to the point, much like Phileas Fog himself. It is thanks to the incredible narration that brings these characters to life and the fun sound effects and songs that begin each chapter that made this book even more enjoyable. If you need a book about a quick adventure and a lot of chaos mixed in, this is certainly the perfect book!
