Woo hoo! Welcome to the first book recommendation of the ISB Learning Hub. Marooned is a very intriguing read for students who are interested in real-life adventure stories. The fact that it is based on the book character Robinson Crusoe who spent years marooned on a desert island is what drew me to the book, and it was a very enjoyable read.
