When Robinson Crusoe finds himself marooned on an island following a shipwreck, he is determined to survive. Accompanied by the ship's dog, he finds supplies among the wreckage, builds a camp, learns to hunt and explores the uninhabited island. When a group of cannibals arrive on the beach with their prisoners, Robinson Crusoe saves a young man: Friday. Friday becomes his trusted companion and loyal friend, and together they battle cannibals, rescue Friday's father and hatch a plan to save a Spanish ship from mutineers.

Carefully retold in clear contemporary language, and presented with delightful illustrations, these favourite classic stories will capture the heart and imagination of young readers.
