A shipwreck, a sole survivor, a deserted island - What could be more appealing to children than Robinson Crusoe's amazing adventure? Set in the 17th century and unfolding over a 30-year period, it offers plenty of adventure and suspense while painting a fascinating portrait of the age - including references to slavery and Europe's view of the 'New World.' Abridged for easier reading and carefully rewritten, with 'Classic Starts[trademark],' young readers can experience the wonder of timeless stories from an early age.
