20,000 leagues under the sea
- 1. Classic by Jules Verne Graphic by Carl Bowen PowerPoint by Emily
- 2. Pierre Arronox- professor in search of the monster they believe is a whale in the classic and a narwhal in the graphic Conseil- Pierres assistant and servant who also came on the trip Ned Land- King of harpoons. Has a cannon as an arm and great eye-sight. In the Classic novel they call him the Canadian, This is not mentioned in the graphic Captain Nemo- crazy captain of the Nautilus who takes them prisoner on his ship.
- 3. In 1866-1867 Leave New York and travel on the ship Abraham Lincoln until they are captured and taken to the Nautilus. They traveled 20,000 leagues on the Nautilus, hence the title of the book. Spend more time at places they visit in the classic novel though.
- 4. People have started to notice strange events out at sea all over the world so they send the professor and crew out to sea to find what it was. They dont find a creature but a submarine! This was fascinating because in 1866 they were no such things as submarines. They were held hostage on the ship by Captain Nemo. The only rule he had was that when he said to go in their cabin, they must do as they are told. They went on many adventures until they realized Nemo was a madman, and escaped in the moonlight. In the classic novel it is much more descriptive.
- 5. They cant leave the Nautilus and Captain Nemo is a madman. There are much more small conflicts that happen in the classic novel. Squids attack in both, but Lack of air, sharks, and other things are in the Classic.
- 6. Adventurous underwater It is sad at the end when Captain Nemo is crying before the pictures It can be scary at times It is happy though because the characters are amazed at the wonders they see
- 7. The theme is Underwater Fantasy. I think this is also a bit of a Sci-fi because it is in the future.
- 8. They solve the problem by escaping the Nautilus in the moonlight.
