Swiss Family Robinson

Two days ago I read Swiss Family Robinson. And it was interesting, very interesting. I liked the part when they reached the island. And before that, they lived in Europe. There was an ostrich and they ate one and captured one. And they gathered antelope to eat in cold weather.

They saw a 14 foot long boa constrictor! And they had 2 dogs. Their names were Turk and Flora.

Note from Mom:
Caleb devoured Swiss Family Robinson in a couple of hours. I had never read it so I enjoyed reading a couple of chapters with him. The book is quite similar to the movie but the boys were a tad more enthusiastic with the guns than I would've liked! They were always shooting the animals. But it was a great adventure story.
