What it's about
The popular classic by R. L. Stevenson has been adapted by the editorial board of V&S Publishers to enrich children with adventurous sea voyages. It happens to be one of the timeless masterpieces of yesteryear writers. The story begins when Jim, a young boy and protagonist of the story, decides to embark on a sailing ship - the Hispaniola – to trace the treasure supposedly buried in a mysterious island. Along the way, he faces shipwreck, a pirate mutiny, and sword fights. Jim's tale is a rags-to-riches story of a young boy who overcomes the odds Treasure Island has been called a “novel of greed,” and certainly greed is a minor theme of the book. The chief theme is Jim's quest to bring home something of great value and to gain his own moral adulthood, a treasure in itself. The tone of the book is essentially suspenseful and tense because of the descriptive details about what's going on. Over the past few years there have been many great classical literatures that have been adapted by V&S Publishers to bring the young readers to these jewels that are ideal for them and their inquisitive minds. The book comes with illustrations in the purest V&S Publishers' style!
