My favorite classic was Robinson Cruesoe. There are many reasons why I liked this book. One of the reasons was this book was very descriptive. I liked this book a lot because he made everything he wanted even if he didn't know how. Robinson ran into a lot of discoveries and problems. My favorite part of the book was when he had just saved Friday from the savages. He took Friday hunting and showed him the gun and he pointed it at a bird out on a branch and shot it as Friday watched. He killed it and it fell from the tree Friday was amazed. Friday thought that he was a god and bowed to him. I also liked how he made the island his kingdom. He had his own crops and his own herd of goats. If he wanted something he made it. I would highly recommend this book to who ever likes books that have adventure, suspense and some action. This book also had a lot of detail. If you like books that always have something new around each corner you should read Robinson Cruesoe.
