I really got into this book. I think I'm going through a second childhood. I was interested in learning if Joe would make it to his game on time. And I love the way it is interwoven with Robinson Crusoe. ( )

First of all I never read Robinson Crusoe nor did I get a chance to see this actual episode if it was one. If I get the chance will I read the whole book or another version like an Illustrated Classic? Truthfully I cannot say since there was too much similarities with this particular book and "Swiss Family Robinson", which I do enjoy.

The actual reading of the Wishbone story is easy to understand but doesn't have the exact Wishbone flair that I am used to. Although Wishbone was his normal personality-style and cute Joe is a secondary character made first while it doesn't do the story any good. His own adventures made it flat while I felt that the story didn't end right.

The story may be a good one for younger audiences or other more lenient Wishbone fans but for me it fell flat. Not as bad as the super mystery I read but not as good as Wishbone Classics "Romeo & Juliet". ( )
