Robinson Crusoe in Words of One Syllable

by Lucy Aikin, Daniel Defoe

Overview

Full text.

Ideal for introducing kids to great literature.

Lucy Aikin undertook translating great literature into single-syllable words so that young readers could enjoy plots that were considerably more interesting than, say, the McGuffey readers of the 1880's or the "Dick and Jane" primers of the 1950s (still around today as "decodable readers" in elementary schools).

Here, she produced this volume based on Daniel Defoe's most famous work, considered by many to be the first English novel.
