A review by 24marsha
The Cay by Theodore Taylor

2.0

WWII and the Caribbean, in fact a part of the Caribbean I have been to and the description of the colourful homes and streets was wonderful. It is a story of survival that is a sure draw for kids, Phillip has to overcome an awful lot of challenges, including blindness, a shiowreck, and natural disasters. But is does perpetuate a lot of derogatory stereotypes.
