Mary Godolphin’s retelling keeps almost entirely to words of one syllable. After six days of storm a Swiss pastor, his wife and four sons are left on a wrecked ship near an unknown shore; they float their goods to land, build a home, tame animals and at last dig a cave out of the rock.

A clever adaptation that lets young readers manage a great adventure story on their own. Download the free EPUB.
