About this book
A children’s edition of Daniel Defoe’s adventure follows Robinson after a shipwreck leaves him alone on an island, where he builds a home and looks for a way back to other people. Even small chores carry risk when he fears being found. To keep smoke from giving away his position, he lights large fires at night and cooks with charcoal. Friday’s account of seventeen men rescued from the sea and living with his people gives Robinson a new possibility to consider.
