What do you think of my story idea – draft included?

I had this idea in my head for such a long time, and I finally wrote a short story about it for English, and I’m planning on expanding it to a full-sized novel now. (I’m waiting on my teacher’s verdict, I gave him the short story version today. lol :p)
I’ve included the first 2 papragraphs here. Let me know what you think, and if you want more just let me know and I’ll post more. :D

Marie looked around her. She was on an island, an island that hid surprises around every corner and had risks at every step. It was an island of adventure, an island that had an almost eerie, unearthly feeling of magic and unrealistic sense about it. It rendered you unable to look at the real world in the same way again after you had been there; for the island gave you a perception of imagination and virtual existence that you just knew was unrealistic, yet your body told you it was real in every sense. In fact, the island was exactly what Einstein had meant when he said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge; for knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world and encircles it.”
For sure, this was no ordinary island. It was not able to be found using any map of the world; for it did not exist to those who are unaware of it. It could only be found if you were somewhere deep in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, able to see its steep, beautiful, rainbow-encrusted waterfalls flowing gracefully over treacherous cliffs on both sides of the giant statue of the Greek goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite, right in the middle of the north of the island. The island itself was about five kilometres across in diameter, not including the beautiful seas that surrounded it. The key to finding the island is Einstein’s quote: “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” You had to have faith and trust in your ability to imagine a world of physics-defying realities and imagination with deep emotional and physical connections, and only then could you find it.
