Do you have what it takes to race around the world?
When Nellie Bly read Around the World in Eighty Days, she had an amazing idea. She would race around the world in real life--and she'd do it in less than eight days. In 1889, many people doubted it could be done, especially by a woman. Yet with one small bag and a sturdy coat, Nellie set out anyway. Soon, the whole world was rooting for her . . . But could she make it back home in time?
