A review by nancidrum
The Cay by Theodore Taylor

4.0

This is a great book to read aloud to an elementary child (8 and up), or for a child to read himself. As an adult I really enjoyed it as a quick, easy read with many good virtues...perseverance, positive attitude, self-reliance, friendship, tolerance, survival, respect, and love. It's been a popular book for decades and should be read by all ages.
