Everything you need to understand or teach The Casting Away of Mrs. Leeks and Mrs.Aleshine by Frank R. Stockton.
The Casting Away of Mrs. Leeks and Mrs. Aleshine is an adventure about the two widows, Mrs. Leeks and Mrs. Aleshine who, after a lifetime of hard work on their farms, set out on what is supposed to be a relaxing retirement cruise to Japan. In mid-ocean, however, they are shipwrecked by a collision and cast ashore on a deserted island, like Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe (1719).
The characters are unflappable in the face...
