NOTES
Read by Jonathan Keeble
In search of adventure, Robinson Crusoe, son of a middle-class Englishman, sets out on the high seas only to become stranded on a deserted South American island. Alone on the island for 24 years, Crusoe finally gets some company when he saves a native whom cannibals brought to the island. A thrilling adventure for younger listeners, made thoroughly accessible through Roy McMillan's retelling of Daniel Defoe's text, simplifying and clarifying them at certain points
