Subject: The Cay

The Cay, like many other books, is an genre. It tells a story of a boy named Phillip, who is struck on the head by a large plank in an attack by a submarine. Phillip is plunged into darkness when he becomes blind and drifts on a raft to a cay (a small island). But another survivor (a black man named Timothy) finds himself on the cay as well. In their long stay on the cay, Phillip and Timothy learn to fish and build huts and water containment systems, endure a tragic hurricane that sweeps the island,and (in Phillip's experiences) learn to survive without sight. I enjoyed reading the cay because it was very descriptive and it had action at almost every corner. I also learned many things about geography, the ocean and islands, and how to survive on an island. If you enjoy actiony books, read The Cay. My ranking:*****
