Book: Treasure Island



What an adventure! This year is about getting up to speed with classics, such as "Treasure Island". This specific book has been in our family library for years, I see it was published in 1950. As they say in the intro, the purpose of this version was not to 'edit' or revise' the Stevenson classic. Rather, to recapture the dramatic form of the screen pay [hence it indicates Walt Disney on the spine]. 

It was absolutely wonderful to 'meet' Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver, and reading about the betrayals and adventure of finding hidden treasure!
