RELEASE NOTES:
Pre-numbered label used for registration.
I picked this up at the OBCZ at Panera when I went to drop off some books! It was my first visit to an OBCZ :-)
This looks like a very cute version of the classic story. I will read it and keep it for the Tartan Day challenge I run every year in April since the author is Scottish. I will probably try to release it at a Panera in Virginia since there's a Panera Bread sticker on the front cover :-)
Thanks for the book!

This was a really nice graphic novel version of the classic story. The story here resembled the original very much, down to all the little twists and turns, the battles, the deaths, and Jim's cleverness. The illustrations were a little dark, but beautiful, too. I thought it was a great retelling.
I really enjoyed this book and hope it finds a new reader soon!

I love graphic novels! This little pocket book brought many memories from my childhood. I enjoyed reliving the emotions of the classic Treasure Island. I liked reading the introduction about the author, Robert Louis Stevenson. It is exciting to participate in this book crossing experience. I found this book at a Panera Bread in Alexandria, VA in a shopping center called Kingstowne. I will pass it along to a friend who is interested in book crossing. Let’s see where Jim Hawkins ends up retelling his Treasure Island story!
The story is brief, and enjoyed the artistry of each of the drawings. I am impressed with the journey of this little book; starting in 2004.
