Xin chào, mình là Finn, và mình sẽ giúp bạn hiểu cuốn sách này.

Đây, được giải thích như cho một bạn 10 tuổi:

Một thủy thủ trẻ chán con tàu săn cá voi của mình, nên tại một hòn đảo xanh trong Thái Bình Dương, anh trốn đi cùng người bạn Toby. Họ leo vào một thung lũng ẩn giấu do người Typee giữ, một dân tộc mà các đảo dân khác sợ là ăn thịt người. Người Typee cho anh ăn, chăm sóc cái chân đau của anh, và để anh bơi và dự tiệc cùng họ. Nhưng họ không cho anh rời đi. Anh là một vị khách được chào đón, hay là một tù nhân trong thiên đường?
