edit it pleaseeeeeeeeeee thanks alot Plot Jim Hawkins is a young boy who lives with his parents in,” the Admiral Benbow” on the western coast of England. Captain Billy Bones who was staying at the inn, had a stroke after a man named Black Dog had visited him. Captain Billy Bones died after Pew gives him a paper with a black spot on it. It was the second death he faced; his first was his father a few days ago. He and his mother went to his room, opened his sea chest, and found a logbook, money, and a map. They leave with these contents of the sea chests and hide. After a few minutes Pew and other buccaneers come and search the inn and when there were leaving a few horses trampled Pew which killed him. When Jim and his mother go to the hall, they talk to local physician, Dr. Livesey plus the district squire, Trelawney and they show them the mysterious contents. They recognized as it a map for a huge treasure that the infamous pirate Captain Flint has buried on an island. Trelawney, Dr.Livesey planned an expedition and set sail in a few weeks. When there wert sailing Jim had found out Trelawney had been tricked into hiring Captain Flint’s former mate Long John Silver, and many of Flint's crew. He told. about this and how there were planning it mutiny to Dr. Livesey, Trelawney, and Captain Smollet who seemed to be the only one trustworthy. Captain Smollet thinks of a plan to get them off. He was allowing them leisure time on shore. They go in mini boats which Jim sneaks into, and runs off at the shore. He stopped running when heard Silver speaking. He sees Silver talking to another man who says he refuses to join the mutiny and he witnesses Silver kill him. He runs further and meets Ben Gunn who was marooned on the Island years ago and was once a mate in Flint ‘s crew. Smollet and others go a stockade on the island.

Reading Experience Experienced readers might have enjoyed but first timers may have not enjoyed reading the graphic novel. I did not enjoy reading this graphic novel because of the olden English which is hard to understand. You also have to study the pictures carefully as you read the words. I also have never read a graphic novel, before so it was my first time. I had to read the graphic novel several times before I had understood it. I think this famous story was rewritten in this format because it will encourage teens and the children to read. Analyzed Frame There is a variety of different frames which are very effective. The third frame on page forty is the one I have analyzed. I analyzed this frame because this frame shows the Jim Hawkins being dragged by Long John Silver which is a piece of the cover. This frame answers some of my questions that had sparked in my head before I started to read this graphic novel. Long John Silver was dragging Jim Hawkins, a hostage while on a quest for the treasure. Jim compares himself to a dancing bear in this frame. The emotions that are being portrayed in this frame are anger, and cruelty. I know cruelty and anger are expressed in this frame because of Long John Silver, and the other pirates face expressions that are drawn a bit scrunched up. The way Jim is walking portrays to me that Jim is withering in this frame. It is effective because of its great details in the drawings. This frame could be improved by making Jim drawing more bent and his face should be a bit more detailed with expression. Themes There are many themes in the graphic novel Treasure
