Summary: Not as good as the first one?................
Review: I loved it. It was not as good as The Cay. This book is not good to start with if you have not read the first book, The Cay. The book is about events in Timothy's life that we learn about for the first time. It is about an operation Phillip has to take but there is a risk he may die. Will they take the risk? And if they do, what will happen if anything happens to him...And if something happens to him or he does not get his sight back will he ever go back to the Cay?... His dream is to go back to the Cay..... If all those things happen right will he live up to his dream and go back to the Cay? We also learn about Timothy's life. What happened to that boy that made him such a great guy to Philip? What happened in his early years? Hope you found my review helpful.

Summary: Timothy of the Cay
Review: The book Timothy of the Cay by Theodore Taylor was an amazing and exiting book. The book is about a blind boy named Phillip that had been stranded on a small cay with a black man named Timothy. Months later Phillip is rescued, but Timothy is not able to come along. Phillip goes on home then is sent to New York were he tries to regain his vision. While Phillip fights to get his vision back Timothy's life story is told.
Timothy and Phillip met each other when they floated to shore together after there boat was hit by a torpedo. This was Phillip's only time seeing Timothy because soon after Phillip lost his vision. Later Phillip and Timothy reached land. Timothy taught Phillip how to live on his own even though he was blind. When the rescue team came to save Phillip, Timothy did not come along because he had been killed in a hurricane a couple weeks before. When Phillip finally returned home he felt very depressed because he couldn't see. Phillips parents decided to try and get his vision back so they took him to the best doctor in New York. While Phillip worked with the doctor in New York, the Author was telling Timothy's life story before he had met Phillip.
My opinion on Timothy of the Cay was it was an amazing and exciting book. I thought the book was amazing because Phillip was able to live on the cay by him self without vision, and it was amazing what the Doctor did to try and restore his vision. When I read how Phillip had survived without food, water, or his vision on a cay I couldn't believe it. Phillip fished on his own and got water by himself, I thought that was truly amazing. I thought it was exciting how the Doctor tried to restore his vision because it took a lot of courage buy Phillip and the Doctor, also it was very scary because Phillip could have died.
In conclusion Timothy of the Cay by Theodore Taylor it was an amazing and exciting book. This book was amazing and exiting because of what he had to live through and the hardships he fought through. This book could be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Summary: Cameron from Richveiw middle school.
Review: This book in my opinion is the best book I have ever read. It is about a boy that lives on a island with his mom and dad. But when a war breaks out the family decides to ship there son to a safer place. When the ship he is on gets topedoed he has to bell off. When he wakes up he is on a raft with a man named timothy and a cat called stew cat. These three have lots of adventures together. Until Timothy gets very sick and ill, he starts teaching phillhp what he needs to survive. When timothy dies phillip has to fend for himself. He has a hard time doing it cause you see phillip is blind and he cant see. What would it be like to be out in the middle of an ocean on an island by your self. It would be scary If you like action/adventure stories this book is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
