Lightly abridged version for Puffin Books. Robinson Crusoe was originally written in 1719! We could recommend for an older child following the reading of this novel with J.M. Coetzee's Foe.
One of the most famous survival adventures of all time - with an introduction by Bear Grylls.
After surviving a terrible shipwreck, Robinson Crusoe discovers he is the only human on an island far from any shipping routes or rescue. At first he is devastated, but slowly, with patience and imagination, he transforms his dismal island into a tropical paradise. For twenty-four years he lives with no human companionship - until one fateful day, when he discovers he is not alone...
