Purchased from this publisher over others specifically for the illustrated cover in the listing, as it was a gift. Unfortunately, this wasn't what I received; instead the cover seems to be a photo of an octopus with a miniature plastic sub? Cute, but very much not what I wanted. Product photo really needs updating.

    This book with all the interesting facts about the ocean and its sea life kept me at my phone (on the internet) constantly. I followed the Nautilus's path, and often looked up what the sea life was, along with the suboceanic geology so accurate as known in the 19th century. The characters were brilliantly brought to life. There's an enormous amount of facts and adventures to enjoy. I'll move on to the next Verne classic now.

    I got this book to donate to a lending library and although I like many of Verne's works, I chose this as the book of his to donate because it is the first of his works that I read.

    What I really liked about this version is that it is complete and unabridged. An important factor when choosing a new edition of a classic.

    The font could be larger, but that might not matter to the people who will actually read the book.
