"Rollo in Switzerland" by Jacob Abbott is a children's travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the adventures of a young boy named Rollo, who travels with his Uncle George from Paris to Switzerland. As they navigate through various experiences and encounters, Rollo learns about the geography, culture, and customs of the places they visit, emphasizing the educational aspect of travel. The opening portion introduces Rollo's excitement as he prepares for his journey into Switzerland. He learns about the passport system, a necessary step for travel in Europe, and his eagerness to accompany Uncle George is met with consent from his parents. The story follows Rollo as he embarks on their adventure, from getting the necessary stamps for their passports with the help of a multilingual companion named Carlos, to gaining insight into the travel process, which sets the tone for the educational journey ahead. Rollo's character is depicted as inquisitive and enthusiastic, foreshadowing the adventures and lessons he will encounter throughout their trip. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
