Plot: Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "pirates and buried gold". First published as a book in 1883, it was originally serialised in the children's magazine Young Folks between 1881-82 under the title The Sea Cook, or Treasure Island.
Traditionally considered a coming of age story, it is an adventure tale known for its superb atmosphere, character and action, and also a wry commentary on the ambiguity of morality—as seen in Long John Silver—unusual for children's literature then and now. It is one of the most frequently dramatised of all novels. The influence of Treasure Island on popular perception of pirates is vast, including treasure maps with an "X", schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and one-legged seamen with parrots on their shoulders.

Good morning Eric,
I saw the accident. It happened yesterday morning in the staff lounge.
Mrs smith slipped and fell as she was getting a cup of coffee.
There was some water on the floor and the tiles were slippy.
I called an ambulance because she hurt her back .
The paramedics took her to hospital .
I suggest that the tea boys should mop the floor regularly to keep it dry .
Regards,
Eissa.
