Classics For Young Children 6: Gulliver's Travels
The young doctor Gulliver dreamed of seeing the world all his life.
But he could not have imagined that on his very first voyage he would end up shipwrecked in Lilliput, a country where everything was tiny, even its inhabitants.
The Lilliputians soon got over their initial fear of the stranger, who in their eyes looked like a giant.
And they saw in the person of Gulliver the ally who could help them defeat their enemies.
Gulliver's Travels was written in 1726 by the Irish author Jonathan Swift and immediately won the readership. The book is considered a classic work of world literature and has influenced many other authors.
