The HISPANIOLA still lay where she had anchored; but, sure enough, there was the Jolly Roger--the black flag of piracy--flying from her peak.


Following the death of bloodthirsty buccaneer Captain Flint, young Jim Hawkins finds himself with the key to a fortune - he has discovered a map that will lead him to the fabled Treasure Island. But a gang of villains, wild beasts and deadly swashbucklers stand between him and the stash of gold. Not to mention the most infamous pirate ever to sail the high seas . . .

The original pirate adventure story, this timeless classic includes a wonderfully funny introduction by award-winning author Eoin Colfer, a behind-the-scenes journey, an author profile, a guide to who's who, activities and more!
