This title is suitable for children aged 10 years old and up. At first, Robinson Crusoe finds himself with little hope of survival when he is shipwrecked on a deserted tropical island. He begins to write in a journal of his fight to live, recording every incredible step forward and each miserable setback that befalls him. This handsome edition, with striking illustrations by Scott McKowen, joins Sterling's beloved classics line and is sure to find a treasured place in anyone's family library.
