Summary : John Jarwin and his faithful dog Cuffy are adrift at sea, half-starved and half-drowned. Though all seems lost, a fateful wind carries the pair to a beach on a desert island, where they grow closer than ever as they struggle to survive in their new, unfamiliar, and mysterious environment. A thrilling nautical adventure story from the much-loved children’s author R.M. Ballantyne. R.M. Ballantyne (1825-1894) was a Scottish artist and prolific author of mostly children’s fiction. Born in Edinburgh, Ballantyne was the ninth of ten children. At the age of 16 Ballantyne moved to Canada, where he worked for the Hudson’s Bay Company, travelling all over the country to trade for fur. He returned to Scotland in 1847 following the death of his father, and it was then that he began his literary career in earnest, writing over 100 children’s adventure books over the course of his life. Stories such as ‘The Coral Island’ and ‘The Young Fur Traders’ were hugely popular, and many of them drew on his own experiences of travelling throughout Canada. A stickler for detail, Ballantyne continued to travel widely to research the backgrounds and settings for his exciting stories. His tales became an inspiration for authors of the future, including ‘Treasure Island’ novelist Robert Louis Stevenson. Ballantyne spent the latter period of his life living in London and Italy for the sake of his health. He died in Rome in 1894 at the age of 68.

Summary : For a few minutes Cuffy stood in the doorway and blinked and blinked. He rubbed his eyes, for thebright sunlight hurt them. But soon he and Silkie were frisking and tumbling about in the front-yard.After a little while Cuffy remembered that there was an old tree over in the pine woods-just thefinest tree to climb that anybody could want."Let's go over to the old tree and play," Cuffy said."But Mother told us not to go far away," Silkie reminded him."Oh! I don't care," Cuffy said. "Besides, we'll be back before she knows it."But Silkie would not go with him. So naughty Cuffy started off alone for the pine woods. He foundthe old tree. It seemed smaller than he expected. The reason for that was because Cuffy himself hadgrown tall during the months that he had spent in sleep.He climbed the tree to the very top and as he looked down over the snow he saw something movinga little way off. Whatever it was, it was much smaller than Cuffy himself, so he was not afraid. Andhe scrambled down to the ground and ran as fast as he could go to the place where he saw the smallthing moving. Cuffy wanted to see what it was. He was always like that.Cuffy found a little animal covered with stiff, sharp quills and he knew that it was a porcupine. Andall at once Cuffy felt very hungry. He remembered that his father had sometimes brought homeporcupine meat and-yes, Cuffy actually smacked his lips! His mother was always telling him not tosmack his lips, but Cuffy forgot all about it now.As Cuffy came running up Mr. Porcupine rolled himself into a round ball and lay perfectly still.Now, Cuffy remembered that his father had often told him never to touch a porcupine, because ifhe should he would get his paws stuck full of quills. But now Cuffy decided that he would show hisfather that he too was clever enough to kill a porcupine. So he stepped close to the little round, prickly ball and gave it one good, hard cuff

Summary : Far up on the side of Blue Mountain lived Cuffy Bear with his father and mother and his little sisterSilkie. Mr. Bear's house was quite the finest for many miles around. It was what people call a cave, being made entirely of stone, and so there was no danger of its ever catching fire; and since it wasbuilt straight into the side of the mountain the roof was so very, very thick that Cuffy's father neverhad to worry for fear a tree would fall upon his house and hurt his family. No matter how hard thewind blew, Mr. Bear was never afraid of that.Little Cuffy was not a bad bear at heart. But often when he was playing with Silkie, his sister, hewould lose his temper and cuff her on the head and make her cry. Then his father or his motherwould cuff him. Somehow, he never could learn not to strike out when he became angry. That waswhy he was called Cuffy. It happened sometimes that a day or two would pass without Cuffy'scuffing his sister. And Mr. Bear and Mrs. Bear would begin to think that at last Cuffy had beencured of his bad habit."I do believe the child is growing better mannered," Mrs. Bear would say to her husband, as theywatched their son and daughter playing upon the floor. And then just as likely as not, the first thingthey knew Cuffy would give Silkie a good, hard box on the ear, or a slap right on the end of hernose.But for a long time every winter Cuffy was never naughty. You might think that that was just beforeChristmas. But no-it was not then. All winter long Cuffy was just as good as any little bear couldbe. He was good because he was asleep! You see-when cold weather came, Mr. and Mrs. Bear andtheir children stayed in their cozy house, which was snug and warm, and slept and slept and slept forweeks and weeks until spring came
