This graphic novel follows the incredible journeys of three individuals–Nellie Bly, Thomas Stevens (the man who rode a bicycle around the world) and Joshua Slocum.
I loved it! I especially found Nellie Bly to be hilarious and inspiring. I loved the art, the narration, and most of all, the order of the stories. It was expertly done. By the time I got to the end, I felt like I had come full circle (hahaha, pun intended). I really felt a connection with the last individual, Joshua Slocum, who sailed around the world on his boat.
If you’re interested in travel stories, especially unbelievable tales of people who just won’t quit, you’ll definitely love this one. I highly recommend it!
