What is The Coral Island about?

After a violent storm wrecks their ship, three young sailors—brave Ralph, lively Jack and cheerful Peterkin—find themselves stranded on a remote Pacific island. They must work together to find food, fresh water and shelter while learning to fish, explore hidden caves and build boats. Their island life seems like an exciting paradise, until mysterious visitors arrive. When pirates and danger threaten their safety, the boys must rely on courage, ingenuity and friendship to survive.
