Robert Louis Stevenson was a Scottish writer born on November 13th 1850. His most memorable works were Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
Classics such as these have a curious way of sparking our imaginations. You may find the work of Robert Louis Stevenson and other classical authors for FREE , using the following links:
Here is Robert Louis Stevenson's page on Project Gutenberg, or click the above graphic to view the entire site.

And just for fun, here are some free books I found in French. I have no idea what they contain, so read them before passing them onto your students.

All classics at http://www.classicsarchive.com say they cost $3.95 including the Robert Louis Stevenson books you mentioned were free. Nowhere did I find any free ebooks. Can you please show is the exact link it says they are for free please?
kind thanks,

Thank you Lori! This is a great find.
It looks like you can read it online for free but the download, because you can make notes on it, search the work and such is $3.95.
Sorry I didn’t notice that! I don’t want to advertise for them ,and reading online won’t do, so here are a couple of others (I’ll add them to the post above in a minute)….
Project Gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page
ManyBooks.Net: http://manybooks.net/
Now I’m off to make sure they have RLStevenson books, and to update the post.
Thank you for your help, gals!
Found them on kindle.com as a free download.
Thank you for sharing that, Devina!
