Treasure Island
Häftad bok. 1996.
Nyskick.
While a preeminent adventure tale, Treasure Island is also an enduring coming-of-age story as Jim both navigates life-and-death situations and encounters moral lessons. It introduced numerous concepts that have become widely associated with pirates: one-legged seamen, black-sailed ships, treasure maps marked with an “X,” the frightening black spot, and parrots yelling “pieces of eight.” With its evocative atmosphere, vivid text, and fantastic characters, Treasure Island spawned countless imitations.
Jim Hawkin's dangerous search for pirate treasure is accompanied by period illustrations and extended captions that offer young readers a captivating glimpse into the world of sailors and sea voyaging.
