From 1999 to 2009, Sir Andrew Motion wrote as English court poet rhymes about the royal family. When his office was over, he plunged into new tasks and wrote a sequel to the classic "Treasure Island" by R.L. Stevenson. This time, the daughter of ex-pirate Long John Silver and the son of Jim Hawkins heading for the legendary island, because there is still a huge silver treasure buried. Unfortunately, the island is no longer uninhabited. "Silver - Return to Treasure Island" is a worthy successor to the original, a real gold piece for all adventure seekers.
