Summary: Completely unrealistic and unbelievable.
Review: Not a worthwhile read. Don't waste your time. Interesting plot, but got a little carried away with the disasters and everything. Like a Disney movie.

Summary: It was exciting throughout the middle and end of the book.
Review: I thought the book was a little slow in the beginning, but became exciting when the ship was sunk and Timothy, Stew Cat, and Phillip were on the little wooden raft. It got even more exciting when they were stranded on the island.

I learned from the book that you can't always do everything yourself, but you need to rely on other people for help sometimes.

Summary: fascinating
Review: This book was worth the while. It's of a young boy's survival story in which he is fleeing a country that is under attack. He is later shipwrecked and blinded by a blow to the head. His struggle to survive depends on a man named Timothy. Phillip and Timothy are out at sea and encounter an island where they will struggle to live. The form a friendship that was considered strange, because of their race. I urge young readers to read this book.
