Features: Phonetic color picture book of classic world literature. A file in a bottle gave Sir Graham and Lady Gray such a hint: Captain Grant's "Britannia" was stranded near 37°11′ South Latitude. Thus, a vague distress letter and a few kind and just hearts guided them to take Captain Grant's children on an uncertain rescue journey. Maybe the bottle came from the rivers of South America? So they crossed the South American grasslands, shook off the crazy waves, and shook off the overwhelming floods, but couldn't shake off the loss of not seeing the captain. Maybe the shipwreck happened in Australia? To be inadvertently deceived by the set by the pirate leader, nearly lost their lives, yet still didn't know where the captain was. Maybe they became prisoners in New Zealand. Unexpectedly, overnight, they became prisoners of the Māori. After this series of setbacks, everyone decided to return, but at that moment, they heard a distant cry for help. There was an island right at 37°11′ South Latitude.
