Robinson Crusoe

Robinson Crusoe

De: Daniel Defoe, Deanna McFadden

Narrado por: Rebecca K. Reynolds

A shipwreck. A sole survivor, stranded on a deserted island. What could be more appealing to children than Robinson Crusoe’s amazing adventure? Set in the 17th century, and unfolding over a 30-year period, it offers plenty of suspense and everyday detail about how Crusoe manages to stay alive. Additionally, it paints a fascinating portrait of the age - including references to slavery and Europe’s view of the “New World.”

Retold from the Daniel Defoe original by Deanna McFadden.

a little like the book

for starters, there was a female reader, so it just felt odd from the start for that reason. now, I know this is a far shorter version than the full book so I expected it to not be exactly the same... but they took some liberties- it was much like when a great book gets made into a movie version- how it's sometimes similar but also different. that's how this was. there wasn't just a lot cut out, but a few unnecessary alterations made. pretty disappointed. I have listened to the whole book and just wanted a shorter version that hit all my favorite parts to listen to over and over again. this isn't it sadly.
