If you were stranded on a desert island, what would you do? Young readers can read and imagine in this unabridged paperback edition of The Swiss Family Robinson.

After their ship crashes onto a deserted island, the Robinson family begins a castaway life of adventure, scientific exploration, and the primal instinct to survive. As the years pass, the family begins to wonder: do they want to be rescued and return to civilization, or continue their island life forever?
This high-action novel--available in its unabridged entirety--is perfect for young readers' libraries.

Johann David Wyss

Johann David Wyss was born in Berne, Switzerland in 1743. Although not much is known about Wyss's early life, what we do know is that he was greatly inspired by Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe.

This influence was so great that, later in life, he wrote his own shipwreck adventure story by the name of The Swiss Family Robinson.

This novel imitates his own personal life, in that it features a married couple with four sons as the main protagonists.

As for the rest of the story, it is completely fictional and was written with the aim of providing his children with an alternative way of learning certain life skills.
