The blue lagoon

Readers of “The Blue Lagoon” will recall that it described the casting ashore on an uninhabited isle in the South Seas of two children, Dick and Ernmeline Lestrange—the son and niece of Arthur Lesirange. They grew up together in a wild, uncivilized state, fell in love, and drifted out to sea in a dinghy with their child. About the same time Lestrange. after years of searching, had at last learned of their whereabouts and was fast approaching the island in the Raratonga. This story opens at the moment when he comes across the drifting dinghy.
