The pirate story that started it all (I think)!  Jim Hawkins finds a treasure via a pirate, who dies at his parents inn, and goes on an adventure to find the treasure.  He sails the high seas grappling with pirates while trapped on "Treasure Island". It was fun to read this and enjoy the adventure, though I have been spoiled by movie adaptations that offer actors and all the amazing visuals.
