Title: Lots of fun
Review: Treasure Island is a rip roaring adventure tale full of treasure (surprise), pirates, and action. Narrated by young Jim Hawkins, Treasure Island is nonstop fun.Jim is the son of innkeepers when a mean and nasty sailor (we soon learn he is a pirate) walks in and captures Jim's imagination. When the pirate dies (after two run-ins with pirates from his former ship that have tracked him down) Jim finds a treasure map and is chased by the same band of pirates. This leads Jim to take the map and with his allies attempt to track the treasure down. Complications arise including mutiny that force Jim to grow up and leads him to the adventure of a lifetime.This was a really fun book to read and is a true page turner throughout. Treasure Island gave us Long John Silver, Yo ho-ho and a bottle of rum, a talking parrot on a pirate's shoulder, pirates with a wooden leg, and a treasure map with an X.
