At once satiric and magical, rich in philosophy and astonishing adventure, Gulliver s Travels transports children into worlds unknown. The entire voyage is seen through the eyes of Lemuel Gulliver, a ship s surgeon whose amazing account begins with a shipwreck on the high seas and continues as he encounters a race of miniature people known as Lilliputians; giant Brobdingnagians; the foolish Laputians; the very humanoid Yahoos; and finally, the gentle and wise horse-like Houhynhyms beings far superior to Man. Will Gulliver ever make it home again?"
