Book Description

Age Level: 6 and up | Grade Level: 1 and up

For six days and nights, a storm tosses the Robinson family's ship around on the sea, before dashing it on the rocks off a deserted island. All the sailors are gone. The family is alone! But nothing can keep the cheerful Swiss family Robinson down for long. Father and Mother Robinson, along with their four irrepressible boys, quickly settle into their new home--mining the shipwreck for supplies, discovering valuable resources on the island and animal friends, and even turning the treetops into their own lofty aerie. Life is a nonstop adventure with the Swiss Family Robinson!

Johann Wyss's classic survival story is available for the first time ever as a Stepping Stones in this early chapter book filled with exciting black-and-white illustrations.

2.0 out of 5 stars Boring, October 20, 2009

We read this book to our 8 year old son each night before bed and it was terribly boring. We were looking for books so that he could read along to himself and that would introduce him to some classics. We enjoyed Tom Sawyer, Les Miserables, and Robin Hood from this series much more. This one was just too boring.

I haven't read this version of the book but if it is like the other Stepping Stone Books I will be great. It is a very readible book. It is easy to read and understand.
