English lesson 35

Theme of Treasure Island

Robert Louis Steveson wrote the book Treasure Island. It is a story about a boy growing up with pirates . This book is one that has a much different theme then others. One of the themes is that some people can’t be trusted. In the book Long John Silver is a bad quartermaster under Captain Flint. Eventually this Leads to Long John Silvers starting a rebellion against Captain flint. Another small theme that I noticed is being addictod to alcohol. For exaple Billy Bones, a sea captain dies beacuse of drinking. Another one is Israel Hands gets drunk and kills a fellow watchman on their boat. I hope you liked my essay on themes. Thank you for reading.
