This hiding spot was just BEGGING for a cache. It looks like it was placed there for that purpose!
I've seen a lot of cache series, but I have not seen anything related to literature or books. I decided that there needed to be one. As my username states, I am a writer. I am also a reader. This series is dedicated to the myriad books I've read that got me hooked on the written word. Who knows, maybe it will spark an interest in you!
Treasure Island is one of my favorites. It was written by Robert Louis Stevenson. Several movies have been done, including one starring the Muppets, but none come close to the adventures in the book.
Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "buccaneers and buried gold". First published as a book on 23 May 1883, it was originally serialized in the children's magazine Young Folks between 1881 and 1882 under the title Treasure Island or, the mutiny of the Hispaniola with Stevenson adopting the pseudonym Captain George North.
Traditionally considered a coming-of-age story, Treasure Island is a tale noted for its atmosphere, characters and action, and also as a wry commentary on the ambiguity of morality — as seen in Long John Silver — unusual for children's literature. It is one of the most frequently dramatized of all novels. The influence of Treasure Island on popular perceptions of pirates is enormous, including such elements as treasure maps marked with an "X", schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and one-legged seamen bearing parrots on their shoulders.
Since this is the "Treasure Island Cache" the container pretty well stocked for children so that they may find their own treasure!
