Description
"Swiss Family Robinson" by Johann David Wyss is a novel first published in 1812. When a Swiss family's ship is wrecked in the East Indies, they must survive alone after the crew abandons them. Stranded on a tropical island with salvaged supplies and animals, the family builds a new life, facing adventures while learning lessons about self-reliance, natural history, and cooperation. This classic "Robinsonade" follows their resourceful struggle to create a settlement in an unknown land, uncertain if rescue will ever come. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
