Shipwrecked and stranded on a deserted tropical island, Robinson Crusoe must use his ingenuity, courage, and determination to survive. Over twenty-eight years, he builds a home, tames animals, defends himself against attackers, and eventually forms a deep bond with a native companion he names Friday. Lush illustrations bring Crusoe's struggles and survival adventures to life.
