The Swiss Family Robinson

By: Wyss, Jean Rudolph

"The Swiss Family Robinson" is a timeless masterpiece of survival and adventure that follows the trials and triumphs of a resourceful family shipwrecked on a remote tropical island. Left to their own devices after their vessel is destroyed in a storm, a pastor, his wife, and their four sons must combine their courage, ingenuity, and knowledge of the natural world to create a new life in the wild.
