Treasure Island is a novel written by Robert Louis Stevenson and its genre is adventure fiction. The book was published in 1883. In this book there is vocabulary in every other page because it is adapted for the Finnish readers.
In this book there are couple main characters and they are Jim Hawkins who is adventurous young boy, Dr. Livesey who is local doctor and wise man, Long John Silver who is eye and foot half former pirate that owns a parrot. Other minor character in this book is Ben Gunn who becomes a friend of Jim´s and tells where the most of the treasure is.
The book tells the story of a boy named Jim Hawkins who goes to the adventure of treasure island. The adventure starts when a pirate named Billy Bones dies and they find his treasure map that tells where the pirate captain Flints treasure is hidden. Jim gathers a crew for the trip and when they arrive to the treasure island his crew wants to take the treasure for themselves. When they arrive to the place where the treasure is supposed to be they find that the treasure is not there. After that Jim manages to escape from the rebelling pirates and finds a man named Ben Gunn who is a former pirate and knows where the most of the treasure is. After when they have suppressed the rebellions they go back to England and they split the treasure as agreed.
I do not usually read books because I do not like to read but in my opinion this book was alright and I would recommend this book for anyone who enjoys reading and likes adventure novels. The book was narrated from Jims perspective and text was clear and the vocabularies helped if you did not know what some words meant.
