COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Not appropriate for children submitted by Christyb10 on July 6, 2014, 3:19pm Despite the fact that Robert Lewis Stevenson's Treasure Island and the more recently published (2012) sequel by Andrew Motion, Silver, are family-friendly exciting tales, do not let children younger than middle school listen to this one. Unnecessary foul language (much courser than that of Treasure Island) and violence towards women feature prominently. This was a very disappointing book on CD.
