It begins with an old sea chest, a mysterious map, and a terrifying blind man knocking at an innkeeper's door. Young Jim Hawkins is swept from a quiet life on the English coast into a world of cutthroats, hidden gold, and high-seas adventure. Joining the crew of the Hispaniola, Jim soon discovers that the greatest danger isn't the vast, uncharted ocean, but the men on board. At the center of the storm is the charming, one-legged cook Long John Silver-a man whose shifting loyalties make him the most formidable friend and the deadliest foe a boy could encounter. On the shores of Treasure Island, where skeletons guard the path to fortune, Jim must grow up fast or die at the hands of those who would kill for a share of the spoils. Robert Louis Stevenson's masterpiece is the ultimate adventure story. A thrilling tale of courage, greed, and the thin line between hero and villain that has captivated readers of all ages for generations. Set sail for the horizon. Uncover the map. Claim your fortune.
