Robinson Crusoe
Have you ever or listened to
story about man who want to around the world? I bet you have. How about a story
of the man who was come and life in unidentified island? If you have not read
that kind of book try to read Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe. The story takes
place at an island. This book is very exciting and can’t stop before have finish
to read this book, and those are my reason for choosing this book for my book
report.
The main character in the book
is Robinson Crusoe, the man was born in York and want to begin a new life going
to the sea and see the world. Robinson Crusoe life with his father and his
mother. His father was born in Germany came to York when he was a young man.
Robinson started to the sea for the first in 1st september 1651 with his friend
and his friend’s father.
The story started after he met
and talk about their future. 1st september 1651, they left hull. The ship’s
journey was from Hall to London. First night at sea there was a heavy storm. He
was afraid and wanted to be at home in York. First journey was bad, his father
friend said the sea is not the place for him after they are get the big storm
at Yarmouth. He found a man with a ship again when he beck to the York. Next
journey to Guinea, on the west coast of Africa. His come beck to York with L 300 in his hand. His used his
money for a very long journey to Brazil. 1659 his left Brazil for Africa, after
twelve days at ship there was a great storm, they find land but his friend were
dead. He found the good place for his home near the top of hill, he made the
cave large and put his things inside. His come to this island on 30 september
1659. Because just him in this island he say this as his country. He found dead
men’s bones, and watch for the cannibals. One day when the cannibals come near
his house again he kill two cannibals. He found the prisoner of cannibals
people. After twenty five years, some body spoke to him. One day he gift new
name to the prisoner, his name Friday and Robinson teach Friday to speak with
english language. Friday change his life after twenty fives years life alone.
Friday teach very fast for every thing, they make a plans for left this island,
and the plan start in december because it was best mounth to start the journey.
October they fight the cannibals and found one prisoner, come from in Spain,
his name Christianus. Five men left their island in boat. One day Friday follow
the cannibals and kill them, and in this day he finds his father. Robinson have
four friend now at his home. After eight days without Friday’s father and
Christianus, Friday see a ship in the beach. This english ship. They met with
who use the ship and Robinson help they are. With Friday Robinson left his
island on 19th December in the year 1686. 11th june in the year 1687 Robinson
arive to England. He get two hundred pounds because help the catain in his
island. Robinson help his family and he found his girl and married with her. In
1694, Robinson and Friday went beck to
their island. There were a lot of men and women there now. They also visited
Brazil and sent more people and animal to their island. Robinson will live in
his island again in the future. But will be a different story.
I think this story is worth to
read, because in this story tell a bout a Robinson as a people doesn’t tired to
try for survive when he just life alone in unidentified island, and he want to
help some one who his doesn’t know. Robinson’s character is really good.
I suggest you to read this “ Robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe. After read
this book, we feel after get a one trip in imagination world, and many
experience in this book make we are forgot to everithing because make we are
anxious to the next part of this story.
