There are some guys. They go on a journey. To "the center of the Earth" (well, not literally the center, but a considerable ways down). Then (spoiler alert) they come back.That's a short summary. It might be sufficient to get you a D minus minus if you're supposed to write a summary for English class, but I doubt it; just read the book yourself, it's not all that long and it, like most of Verne's works, is actually pretty good.
The narrator in "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is Axel Lidenbrock, a young professor of mineralogy. He tells the story of their adventure to the center of the Earth alongside his uncle, Professor Otto Lidenbrock, and their guide, Hans Belker.
"The Earth Dragon Awakes" is a children's historical fiction novel by Laurence Yep that tells the story of two Chinese boys in San Francisco during the 1906 earthquake.

Earth is a planet in the solar system that formed around 4.5 billion years ago. Its story involves the evolution of life, the rise and fall of civilizations, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. The first listeners of Earth's story were likely early organisms that inhabited its oceans billions of years ago.
One type of creation story that describes Earth originating from water is the "Watery Chaos" myth. In this myth, Earth is born from the primordial waters through the actions of a creator deity. Examples of this type of creation story can be found in various mythologies, such as the Babylonian Enuma Elish and the Ancient Egyptian creation myths.

The closest theme of Journey to the Center of the Earth, in my opinion, is sacrifice for success. The story deals with a scientist- a geologist and his companions journey to the lower levels of the planet- using primitive techniques- not vehicles (odd for gadget-oriented Verne) and the encounters with prehistoric life.
The (1959) director of Journey to the Center of the Earthwas Henry Levin.The (TV 1999) director of Journey to the Center of the Earth was George Miller.The (2008) director of Journey to the Center of the Earthwas Eric Brevig.
Axel is a young, intelligent, and curious character in "Journey to the Center of the Earth." He is the nephew of Professor Lidenbrock and serves as the narrator of the story. Initially hesitant and cautious, Axel's character evolves throughout the journey as he becomes more adventurous and brave in the face of the unknown challenges they encounter.
Yes, the summary effectively captures the main plot of the story where the protagonist sets out to find a lost treasure and faces obstacles during the journey.
