Treasure Island - The story of a treasure hunt, Book Review.

Hello everyone,
‎Today I want to talk about a book that after reading it felt like I myself had boarded a boat and sailed to an unknown island. The book is called Treasure Island, by Robert Louis Stevenson. This famous adventure novel, published in 1883, is a priceless gem of English literature. Although it was originally written for teenagers, it is equally exciting and lively for readers of all ages.
‎
‎The story begins in a small inn, where teenager Jim Hawkins lives with his parents. One day, a mysterious sailor Billy Bones arrives there. He was always afraid that some pirates were looking for him. When he suddenly dies one day, Jim opens his chest and sees a treasure map inside. And this map is the center of the story.
‎
‎Jim shows the map to the honest village man Dr. Livesey and Squire Trelawney. They decide to go in search of treasure and rent a ship, which is called Hispaniola.This is where the real adventure begins.

‎They recruit many sailors, and among them are some dangerous pirates, whose leader is a clever man with a limp Long John Silver. At first, he makes everyone believe with a smile, but later it becomes clear that his real purpose is to seize the treasure.
‎
‎After reaching the island, a difficult battle of wit, courage, and survival begins. On the one hand, Jim is afraid, and on the other hand, he tries to handle the danger with his wit and courage. There are many moments in the story where it seems,This is the end! But Jim’s bravery awakens new hope. In the end, they are able to recover some of the treasure, and the rest remains unknown on the island — as if to keep the mystery alive in the reader’s mind.
‎
‎The greatest magic of Stevenson’s writing is his description. He portrays each place so beautifully that when I close my eyes, I feel like I am on that ship, listening to the sound of the waves, and seeing a glimpse of an island in the distance. The pace of the story never stops for a moment.

‎It was through this book that all those pirate concepts were first popularized such as “treasure map, X marks the spot, black spot, and the pirate with a parrot in his hand. In other words, the way we imagine pirates today has its roots in this book.
‎
‎What I liked most about the book was the message the value of courage, honesty and friendship. Jim Hawkins’ character reminded me that in any adventure in life, you have to move forward with the strength of your heart without being afraid.
