Two Explorers: Marco Polo and Roald Amundsen is the compulsory reading we have chosen this year for 2nd ESO bilingual group.
Here you are a brief summary of the plot:
These are the stories of two of the bravest explorers of all time:
- In the 13th century, Marco Polo, a 17-year-old merchant from Venice, travelled to China and met the Great Emperor, Kublai Khan. On the way, Marco discovered many exotic and fascinating things.
Roald Amundsen was a 19th century Norwegian Artic explorer. he wanted to reach both the North and South Pole. He sailed through dangerous storms and crossed a giant sea of ice to achieve his goals. How did he survive the extreme conditions?
