TREASURE ISLAND follows the adventures of young Jim Hawkins, cabin boy aboard the Hispanola as he travels in search of treasure on the mysterious Skeleton Island. Along the way he encounters fantastic characters such as the mad Ben Gunn, hideous apparition of evil, Blind Pew, murderous Israel Hands, and of course, Long John Silver, one of the most charismatic anti-heroes in all of literature. Will Jim save the ship and return home with the treasure, or will he fall in with the mutinous pirates.
