This high-action novel is perfect for young readers' libraries. - The Guardian.

A rousing, humorous and gentle-hearted tale. - The New York Times.

The Swiss Family Robinson, first published in 1812, is an enduring tale of resilience, imagination, and domestic harmony. Written originally to entertain and instruct Wyss's own four sons, the novel follows a Swiss family-father, mother, and four sons-who are shipwrecked on a deserted island while en route to a new life. Unlike many survival stories steeped in grimness, Wyss's narrative leans toward optimism, presenting the family's predicament not as tragedy but as an opportunity for ingenuity and growth.
