Product Description
Product Description
This is a BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of one of the most famous adventure stories of all time, starring Roy Marsden as Robinson Crusoe. Young Robinson Crusoe has a burning ambition to be a sailor. Paying no attention to his parents' warnings he runs away to sea to embark on a series of thrilling adventures: struggles with Barbary pirates, a shipwreck and the extraordinary meeting with Man Friday...Roy Marsden plays the older Robinson Crusoe looking back on a life of recklessness, daring and adventure - and the survival of twenty-eight years, two months and nineteen days on a desert island. Based on the real-life adventures of Alexander Selkirk, "Robinson Crusoe" was one of the very first adventure stories to be published in English literature. It remains as gripping today as it did on first publication in 1719, and this enthralling dramatisation perfectly evokes the excitement and adventure of the original book.

This abridged dramatization is an exciting introduction to this famous story. My four little girls (aged 2-8) followed the plot easily and listened happily as they colored at the table while the rain poured down outside!
I bought this for my son and he really enjoyed it. A great story, a real classic. He's been listening to it almost nightly since receiving it.
Highly recommended!!!

I listened to this with my eleven year old nephew whilst driving a long drive to Devon. It was fabulous - and I, as the grown up, learned loads about the slave trade and the 'real' story of Robinson Crusoe. Because of the first person narration, my nephew was convinced that it was really Robinson Crusoe telling us about his adventures which is really rather cute, don't you think?
