Description
When a comet strikes, it breaks off a section of the Earth, sending it spinning into outer space - along with a group of survivors who were not left behind! Can they survive the harsh conditions of their new, reduced world, and if not, how can they get home? Classics Illustrated tells this wonderful tale in colourful comic strip form, offering an excellent introduction for younger readers. This edition also includes a biography of Jules Verne, theme discussions and study questions, which can be used both in the classroom and at home to further engage the reader in the story.
