My class is reading a book called The Cay. It takes place in the Caribbean when World War two is going on. There is a black man named Timothy who saved this boy’s life. The boy’s name is Phillip. They are stranded on an island that is in the Caribbean.
Phillip is a spoiled kid who was raised to think he’s better than the black people, and I don’t think he should be so mean to Timothy because Timothy saved his life more than once.
Timothy is a black sailor who can be very generous and sometimes not. Timothy is more than 70 years old and has a cat named Stew Cat.
