Climb aboard for the swashbuckling adventure of a lifetime. Treasure Islandhas enthralled (and caused slight seasickness) for decades. The names Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins are destined to remain pieces of folklore for as long as children want to read Robert Louis Stevenson's most famous book. With it's dastardly plot and motley crew of rogues and villains, it seems unlikely that children will ever say no to this timeless classic. --Naomi Gesinger less
I really enjoyed this story. It plays on the sense of adventure of a young boy, but also the frightening reality of living those dreams. The story isn't terribly deep or mysterious, but it is fun and interesting enough to keep you glued to the pages
