One old sea man visit Jim Hawkins' house with the sea-chest.
Jim found the map of treasure island from the chest.
He and his friends set to sail to find the treasure.

At first, I enjoyed reading this book.
But I was gradually tired of reading because the story is boring for me.
However the depiction is easy to understand. ( )

Jim get a map of 'Treasure Island'.
He and his friends go on a voyage to the island and they are in danger of their lives.
Can they go back to England with treasure?

It was really exciting and thrilling.
I'd never read this book even the book which is translated to Japanese so I was happy to read this.
This is nice but I wanted read more about Jim's friends. ( )
