An American Robinson Crusoe

"An American Robinson Crusoe" is a shortened version of the classic story about a rebellious teenager who goes on a sea voyage against his parents' wishes and ends up on a deserted island after a storm sinks the ship and kills the crew. Robinson, with no tools or weapons, manages to survive on the island for over 28 years and befriends many of the animals that live there. After living alone for over 20 years, he is joined by a young "savage" who becomes his constant companion. The story is an adventure of survival, friendship, and transformation that tells the tale of a man's resilience and adaptability in the face of extreme isolation and hardship."
