About this listen

Swept off course by a raging storm, a Swiss pastor, his wife, and their four young sons are shipwrecked on an uncharted tropical island. Thus begins the classic story of survival and adventure that has fired the imaginations of readers since it first appeared in 1812. With optimism and boundless enthusiasm, the Robinson family undertakes the extraordinary task of constructing a home for themselves and exploring the primitive island filled with strange and beautiful creatures and exotic fruits and plants.

Rich in action and suspense, this exhilarating novel takes us to a faraway place of danger and beauty, where the courageous Robinson family embarks on a thrilling new life of adventure and discovery.

I found it difficult to turn the audio book off and wanted to listen to it every second I got.

The grammar of the book took a little bit to get used to but it didn't really detract from the story.

My only disappointment is it finished too soon LOL

Loved hearing an old classic.
Very soothing to listen to especially while I was sick and in bed for very long time.
Sad to finally come to the end of a very exciting story.
