Although not the best While it is a great book it is a little too family friendly and misses the dark humor of most other books of the genre It is however a well written classic that everyone should read at least once Fiona MacDonald I m not sure who this book is for It s an effective summary of the plot I found it useful to help me remember the real book But this graphic novel isn t enjoyable in its own right It s not a substitute for and lacks all the charm of the real book So it s a cliffs notes in graphic novel form Fiona MacDonald Buku ini mendadak muncul di antara timbunan yang dirapikan Saya ingat sekali.

Muppet treasure island comic book This is a quick fun read and I suggest to anyone who has even the mildest interest in the romanticizing of piratesit s worth reading just to see the source material for so much pop culture Fiona MacDonald My seven year old really likes comics but I want him to read only the best books so little time after all that this Graphic Classics series was a great meeting in the middle for us He enjoyed the story and the format and got exposure to a literary classic which hopefully he ll pick up and read in it s original format someday because he ll already have a connection with the story Fiona MacDonald One of the best known classics that is still read frequently It is probably the best known book about pirates dibeli saat ada obralan sadis pada salah satu pameran buku Harga 100 rb menjadi 5 ribu jika tidak salah Kisah tentang pulau harta memang sudah sering dicetak seperti juga buku klasik yang sejenis Namun selalu ada yang baru tetap menarik untuk dibaca Fiona MacDonald Well for the intended audience for in my humble opinion older children from about the age of nine to probably thirteen or fourteen Fiona MacDonald s 2007 graphic novel adaptation of Robert Louis Steveson s 1883 pirate novel Treasure Island does I guess provide a general cartoon strip like summary or introduction touching on the basics of main protagonist Jim Hawkins adventures and misadventures both at home on dry land and later at sea And yes Fiona MacDonald fortunately does manage to keep her description of arch villain Long John Silver sufficiently nasty and brutal and as such of course akin and alike to Robert Louis Steveson s textual rendition of him with this graphic novel adaptation of Treasure Island also at least to a point managing to depict and demonstrate with Fiona MacDonald s printed words and Penko Gelev s full colour cartoony but historically accurate and realistic accompanying illustrations the many dangers encountered by Jim Hawkins and that life in late 18th century England was in fact and indeed rather unpredictable and often fraught with many potential threats However I also and equally must admit that I most definitely do consider Fiona MacDonald s abridged textual rendering of Robert Louis Steveson s 1883 narrative majorly frustrating annoying and not at all in any way a personal reading pleasure finding Macdonald s adaptation of Treasure Island at barely fifty pages too woefully simplistic too majorly lacking in details too short too devoid of verbal descriptions of backstories of basically all that which makes the original novel so interesting so engaging and thus a classic and with deus ex machina like transitions from one scenario to the next that are ridiculously choppy unfinished and distracting And yes indeed this has at least to and for me also quite turned my invested reading time with Fiona MacDonald s Treasure Island into rather a major and unwanted chore instead of joyful perusing with only the fact that I actually do consider Penko Gelev s artwork as aesthetically and visually appealing having my rating still be two stars and with my further caveat being that I actually would also have thought Fiona MacDonald s text for Treasure Island too lacking in information and description as a child and as a teenager so yes I do think that even for the intended audience MacDonald s words are barely adequate and not really a sufficiently readable and interesting enough adaptation of Robert Louis Steveson Fiona MacDonald This version committed a grave sin it made the story boring I also don t much like Gelev s graphic style but the dry rendition of the tale is even worse Fiona MacDonald I m reading this to Deborah right now I love sticking with the classics for her I get to read stuff I should have read she gets exposed to great literature by hearing it which is accessible than reading it We both win Fiona MacDonald
