The story

The old captain at the Admiral Benbow dies with a black spot pressed into his hand, and leaves young Jim Hawkins a sea-chest and a map. Then a voyage, a mutiny overheard from inside an apple barrel, and an island where the gold is real.

How it reads

The episodes
Fifty-eight of them, about five minutes each, and the novel entire between them.
The word notes
The two to four words most likely to slow you down, at the foot of the page you are on.
The pauses
Twelve breaks: the words of the chapter, and one sentence exactly as Stevenson wrote it in 1883.
The glossary
Two hundred and nine entries at the end, in the same wording used on the page.
No exercises
Nothing to fill in and nothing to test. This is a novel, not a course.
The level
It starts below A2 on purpose and grows as the voyage goes on.
