Treasure island and fables

a young boy poring over a map on a rainy afternoon. an old sea-chest full of tobacco, pistols and doubloons. a parrot named "cap'n flint" after the famous buccaneer,a blind man's stick tapping upon a frozen road. a black spot on a paper meaning death. a schooner named hispaniola... those are some of the most unforgettable and exciting images derived from treasure island, the most famous adventure novel ever written.
