Book Review: Treasure Island

The book I've read is Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson. Jim Hawkins was a innkeeper of Admiral Benbow Inn. One day, a sea dog came to his inn, and wants him to look out for other sailors. Jim did not know that he had an important map that could lead people to Treasure Island. Soon, pirates started attacking the inn, to look for the map, and the sea dog died.Jim found out that the sea dog had a map and escaped with his mother. He then bought the map to Doctor Livesey and Squire Trelawney and they decided to set off to the place where there is treasure. Their crew included Long John's Silvers, and Jim managed to know that he is a pirate. There was a battle between the pirates and the rest of the crew, and in the midst Jim went on shore and found a man named Ben Gunn, who had already found the treasure. After the battle was won, Jim and Ben and the part of the crew that were not pirates and managed to survive the battle returned with the treasure.
I liked Jim most in the story because he is brave and determined.
