Julio Verne

Uncle Robinson's Island Julio Verne

Jules Verne's inexhaustible imagination leads him, once again, to plot the extraordinary adventure of seven helpless castaways on a wild island, apparently uninhabited and full of harassment and danger. In this book the author offers us the routines of an old wizard: a ship captured by the rebel crew, a family of passengers (the Cliftons) thrown into the sea by boat, the arrival on the paradise island of the Pacific and a providential noble sailor who she takes care of feeding, dressing and sheltering them until they recover their head of home, Mr. Clifton, kidnapped on the ship.
