Bad Luck Good Luck

Six year old SCOTT CHRISTIAN is the son of a Marine survival instructor. Because of his father's training since he was four, Scott knows the art of survival. Even though he is so young, he uses that knowledge well when he wakes to find himself alone on a large uncharted jungle island after a massive storm destroys his family's sailing yacht while on a South Pacific adventure. For more than 20 years, with his father's training and his natural abilities, Scott makes a life on the island where he finds prehistoric animals, ancient wonders, vast treasures and an unusual family.
Scott finds an orphaned gorilla, BUDDY, that he raises and when it's grown it starts his own family. They become his beloved neighbors, friends and family. Eventually there are eight joining him from time to time for romps in the stone pond and feasting on jungle biscuits (their favorite). Along with them and two spoiled jungle foxes, Scott has a family!
Scott tells us his story as he struggles to make his life on the island. Hearing his father's instructions in his head with each anxiety, he builds his homesteads, using only his training, ingenuity, salvaged boat parts, natures Home Depot and his mother's big dictionary. He takes us on his explorations, were he finds a cave with Japanese solider skeletons and useful items; a Japanese war plane full of gold bars and what he does with them; and an ancient ruins full of treasures, and dangers.
