This review is from: Treasure Island (Graphic Revolve) (Paperback)

My special education high school students read this version like a play and have a wonderful time doing so. The story is true to the original with simplified plot and language. The graphics are detailed and add richness to the simplified story. I plan to buy the entire series.
