  Robert Louis Stivenson was born in Edinburgh in 1850. As a child, he was often ill in bed, so he read a lot of books. He loved reading stories and began  writing when he was quite young. Stivenson studied at Edinburgh University. His father  wanted him to be an engineer , but  Stivenson didn`t like the idea. Instead, he agreed to become a lawyer.

    In 1880, Stivenson  married  an American woman, Fanny Osbourne. Together they travelled to many different countries! Finally, in 1890, they decided to live on the island of Samoa. Some of Stivenson`s greatest stories are «Treasure Island», «Kidnapped», and  «The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde».
