Product Information

This Book tells the story of a boy, Robinson Crusoe, who runs away to sea and finds himself the sole surviver of a ship wreck. He is washed up on an uninhabited island and we learn of his adventures and striggles to make this 'Island of Despair' his home.
He learns how to make his own tools and furniture, how to cook and hunt, how to plant his first harvest and build himself a home with animal skins and trees from the forest.
As his skills increase, he gradually turns his island into a tropical paradise and accepts his lonely life. But then, one day, he discovers footprints in the sand and realizes he is no longer alone...
This edition, written specially for children, is imaginatively illustrated with colour artwork by Edwardian artist, A.E. Jackson, and brings to life the day-to-day existence of Crusoe.
Based on the real-life adventure of Alexander Selkirk, Robinson Crusoe was written more than 270 years ago and continues to thrill girls and boys of all ages.
