Gulliver was a ship’s doctor. He was going on a long voyage. The voyage started well but soon things changed dramatically. The ship got caught in a violent storm and was thrown off course. Then it hit a rock and broke up completely. Six of the crew members including Gulliver, got into a small boat and rowed until they were overturned by a big wave which came up suddenly. Gulliver was a good summer and so he managed to swim till he reached land.
