"The Cay" by Theodore Taylor tells the story of a young white boy named Phillip who is stranded on a deserted island in the Caribbean during World War II after their ship is sunk. He finds himself in the company of an old Black man named Timothy, who becomes his protector and teacher. As they struggle to survive, Phillip learns important lessons about friendship, race, and resilience. Guided by Timothy's wisdom, Phillip must confront his own prejudices and grow into a resourceful individual as they navigate the challenges of their isolated existence, ultimately forming a deep bond.
