The Victorian poet and novelist Robert Louis Stevenson once said, "Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant." The author of the magical A Child's Garden of Verses and the chilling The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Stevenson indeed planted powerful literary seeds -- that grew into undisputed classics.
Pirates of the Caribbean drew kids into theaters by the droves—and Robert Louis Stevenson’s irresistible tale of derring-do is simply the best, most original pirate story ever written. Young readers will joyfully set sail with Jim Hawkins, who has always dreamed of going to sea. And now he’s getting his chance, thanks to a very special treasure map he’s found…left behind by a pirate captain.
