We are reading EL Cayo in class because Mrs.K is making us read it. The main characters are Timothy and Phillip. They are in a little island, trying to survive and they hope some one comes to save them. They got to the island because Phillip's mom wanted to get out of the Curacao and wanted to go to the US. But some one bombed the boat that they were in. Then Phillip got hit in the head so Timothy helped him and took him on to a big piece of wood. Then they floated in the water for days then they got to a little island. That is how they got to the little island. I  like this book because it is very interesting  and because it deals with relationships and racism.  I would recommend this book to people who live or lived on a island.
