December’s classic novel up for conversation is Robert Louis Stevenson’s “Treasure Island,” a swashbuckling story of an impulsive and adventurous young boy named Jim Hawkins who comes across a treasure map. Jim embarks on a journey to try and recover the treasure, which once belonged to the famous Captain Flint. On his journey, he meets Long John Silver, a one-legged cook who ends up leading a pirate mutiny.
