That's not really a typo IMHO -- both 'round' and 'around'
seem fine to me here. (The OED entry for 'around' notes
"There is variation with 'round' adv. and prep. in many of the
senses below; in general 'around' is less usual in British usage",
so some of this is US-vs-UK usage or personal idiolect.)
