Response:
The story in the pages i read is very similiar to a book i have read called around the world in 80 days because in here it is said that Liedenbrock and Axel is traveling to Icelandic through boats and trains like in the around the world in 80 days book.

But there is also a difference here between Liedenbrock and Phileas Fogg, Liedenbrock is impatient and likes to rush things but Phileas Fogg has a lot patience and he never rushes things

Title: Around The World in 80 Days
Author: Jules Verne
Pages read: 84-144                                    Strategy: Visualize
Response: I think that Phileas Fogg look like a really nice and handsome gentleman wearing all black, and also i think that Passerpatout look a bit french because in the book, it is stated that he is born in french not england, but was raised in england

Also i think at that time everything including england, ships and trains looked very classic from now because it is around 1800 in the book
