Imagine you've been sailing for weeks staring out to sea day after day. You have little food left and are hopelessly lost. Suddenly you spot it - a small island in the distance. Is it a tropical paradise or a mysterious jungle filled with deadly snakes? You have no choice but to go ashore. Beware however if you find yourself on one of the islands in this book. You might discover a swamp filled with hungry crocodiles a beach haunted by the ghost of a headless pirate or a forest filled with trees that have coffins hanging from their branches. Welcome ashore!
