An Amazon Editor’s Top Pick of Best Books for a Long Weekend

This story, long considered a young adult classic, holds a rich fascination for mature readers as well. Share with the Robinsons-a minister, his wife, and four sons-as they survive a shipwreck and then adapt to life on an island populated by exotic birds and animals. Through small successes and disappointments, not only does this courageous family survive, but comes to find a happiness that eluded them in their civilized homeland.

Author Bio: Johann David Wyss

Author Bio: Johann David Wyss

Johann David Wyss (1743–1818) was a clergyman in Berne, Switzerland. He spoke four languages, loved nature, and was closely involved in the raising of his four boys. To teach them moral lessons and to entertain them, he wrote and read to them The Swiss Family Robinson. His son Johann Emmanuel illustrated it, and years later, another son, Johann Rudolf, edited and had the manuscript published.
