Robinson Crusoe is a very popular adventure book written by an English author named Daniel Defoe. It was published in 1719. The story is about a man named Robinson Crusoe who gets stranded on a tropical island after his ship sinks. He manages to build a small house and grow his own food, so he doesn't need help from anyone else. After 23 years,he meets a group of people who eat other people, and he saves one of their prisoners, a young native person who he names Friday. Robinson and Friday become good friends, and after four more years, they are finally rescued and go back to England. The story of Robinson Crusoe was partly inspired by the real-life adventures of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor from the 18th century who spent almost five years alone on a deserted island. This book is well-known for its beautiful descriptions and for showing how capable people can be when they are left alone in nature.
