Technically a children’s book, yes. But it’s also a companion piece to one of my favorite animated movies and I found it for one dollar at a thrift store, so obviously I’m not passing that up.
Loved the illustrations, and Jim is a fun (over dramatic) narrator.

Eduardo Vitamina does a great job creating a truly believable journal supposedly written by the number one teenage dishwasher / busboy at the Benbow Inn on planet Montressor , aka
James Pleadies Hawkins . Hawkins receives an interesting golden sphere from a dying renegade spacer who is on the run named Billy Bones . Soon after their brief and perplexing conversation Bones enemies come looking for him and burn down the Benbow Inn looking for a stolen treasure .
Jim and his mom escape to the home of a family friend professor Doppler . And from here the pirating adventure begins . . .
Andy Gaskill's superb sketches really make Hawkins notes come to life . My guess is Robert Louis Stevenson ( Treasure Island's author ) would like this very condensed , high tech version of treasure
hunting a far future century .
It was a good prequel to seeing the movie in 2002 .
