About this listen

The Swiss Family Robinson recounts the adventures of a father, mother, and four sons marooned on a tropical island. The story unfolds beginning with the tragic storm that claims their ship and the lives of the captain and crew, continuing with their own harrowing battle with the elements and dangerous landing on the remote island shore, and onward through their ingenious use of the materials at hand to survive. They encounter adventure after adventure, with discovery following upon discovery until, at last, they must face the choice of staying on the island that has become their home, or return to a civilization they left behind.

A good story

A rather dated story, but I read it as a child and wanted to hear it again. It’s really well narrated and was much enjoyed.

Fascinating

Having only seen the film previously I looked forward to the book. The film, I now see, is only based upon the characters in the book.
The original is fuller, more enlightening altogether. It is if it’s time.
