When young Jim Hawkins comes into possession of a mysterious treasure map, he sets sail in search of gold and jewels with the local doctor and magistrate.

I ordered the "Treasury of Illustrated Classics Storybook Collection" edition of Treasure Island (ISBN 9780766631854) and was very disappointed to find that it is heavily abridged and written in a very large font, obviously intended for children. The description of this edition does not specify that it is abridged, so I was under the impression that it was the original text with illustrations added. I was quite disappointed when I received my copy and will be donating it.
In case anyone else makes the same mistake -- do not order the "Illustrated Classics" edition if you are expecting the original work! Instead order one of the many other editions of this celebrated classic.

Childhood Revisited
It has been MANY years since I first read this story. I found myself reading this straight thru and enjoying the illustrations.

Everyman / Peake edition great for adults
This was my first look at a Treasure Island illustrated by Mervyn Peake (Everyman's Children's Classics), and though I gave this as a gift I would purchase another for myself. High quality edition in every respect, with evocative illustrations. For reading to a child, a larger print / larger size edition might be better, and a child might prefer the N.C. Wyeth iillustrations, which are also masterful.

A True Classic
Young lad, Jim Hawkins, narrates this tale of high seas adventure, talk of mutiny, buried treasure and pirates. A great timeless classic. And that fearsome pirate, Long John Silver, as sinister and troublesome as ever.
I introduced my sons to Stevenson when they were merely boys. A Child's Garden of verses, Dr. Jekel and Mr. Hyde and Kidnapped.... An exceptional and creative writer. A very nice edition to any home library...
