Loosely based upon Swiss Family Robinson, a novel written by Johann David Wyss, The Swiss Family Robinson employs a changed family dynamic. Now instead of four sons (Fritz, Ernest, Jack, and Franz) the family consists of a father, mother and their three children Fritz, Rebecca and Jack. As in the book, the family is shipwrecked on a mysterious but fertile island. It is on this island that they face great hardships that threaten their supplies, livestock and even their very lives. Though the family eventually comes to believe that this island will be their final home, new shipwreck survivors change circumstances, and just in time! The island they all live on is volcanic!
Cautions: none. The Swiss Family Robinson contains no swearing or extreme violence.

“Swiss Family Robinson is a fascinating spin on the book. I thought the episodes were well planned, and hilarious at times.”
“As an adult watching this show, I can say it is definitely one that is good for older audiences as well as children. It has an enjoyable plot, instead of being pretend or educational as a children’s show.”
