About this episode
This Oxford University Press publication is a simplified adaptation of Jules Verne’s classic adventure, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, designed for English language learners. The narrative follows Professor Otto Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel as they discover an ancient secret message hidden within an old book. Guided by the instructions of a long-dead scientist, they travel to Iceland and recruit a guide named Hans to help them descend into a volcano. Their subterranean quest leads them through dangerous tunnels filled with crystals, where they encounter a massive underground sea and prehistoric monsters. The source combines illustrated storytelling with educational activities and vocabulary definitions to support reading comprehension. It captures the group's perilous trek as they navigate the depths of the planet on a handmade raft.
