Rating:
Summary: I like how Timothy talks, but I think it has no action.
Review: This is a cool book, and I think it is really cool that Phillip can get around by himself(no I am not retarded).

Summary: I like that phillip used his other sences
Review: I think it is a borning book,because it had no real good action.The only think I like is the way Timothy talks and how they survive on the island. I hope the next book is better then this one.

Review: I think the cay is a good story, but it gets boring while there on island. Every day they do the same thing. Like Timothy allways catches the Langosta.I like how the book has lots of detail.I also like how Phiilip is bline.but all together its a wield book from, Jaron

Rating:
Summary: It didn't have much action,but it was a good book so far.
Review: If it had more excitement, it would be a better book.The only action so far is when they got ship- wrecked and stranded on the cay.To bad nobody can save them because of the coral,but they could send airplanes or even helicopters to save them.

Rating:
Summary: Great for elementary school kids
Review: My children (ages 8 and 10) and I read this book aloud. Both children were fascinated by how imaginative Phillip and Timothy were as they devised ways to survive. The underlying theme--the developing relationship between boy and old man--was powerful, fascinating, sad, and uplifting. They were delighted when I brought home the sequel--Timothy of the Cay, which we're now reading to find out what happened after Phillip was rescued.

Summary: The Cay was my favorite book as a child.
Review: In 5th grade our school had a book sale. I bought the book The Cay with $2.00 that I had saved up. It was the best investment I made as a child. I read it 4 times that summer. Lisa - Age 29

Summary: Im a 5th grade girl and I didn't like this book.
Review: I didn't like this book because the writer could have put more detail into the Cay and they ended it too smoothly. They could of put that they were found but Timothy never recovered from his blindness. ALSO THE PART I LIKED WAS HOW TIMOTHY TREATED PHILLIP WITH RESPECT EVEN THOUGH PHILLIP DIDN'T TREAT TIMOTHY WITH RESPECT BECAUSE TIMOTHY WAS BLACK BUT LATER IN THE BOOK THEY BECAME FRIENDS. THE PART I DIDN'T LIKE WAS THAT TIMOTHY DIED FOR PHILLIP. THEY BOTH SHOULD HAVE BEEN SAVED TOO. The end of the book wasn't as good as I thought it would be. I mostly liked how Timothy talked he used, "Dat be true, Phillip" a lot. I gave this book a 5 because it could have been better than the aurthor wrote it. The part I enjoyed was that Phillip thought that Timothy killed Stew Cat. When Phillip sees his mom and dad he doesn't seem too excited to see them.

Summary: The Cay is a great book.
Review: The Cay is a great book. I really enjoyed it. It's full of suspense and action. Timothy and Phillip have many hard times and they get through them together, usually.... I recomend this book to anyone and everyone who has ever read a book and enjoyed it.

Summary: The best and most memorable book I ever read
Review: The best book I ever read. Believe me. I've read some good books in my time. Nothing tops the theme of inter-dependence in The Ca
