The New York Times Book Review
'Island Boy' is an invitation to our budding rocket scientists and corporate moguls to consider and vicariously enjoy another sort of successful life.For them, Ms. Cooney has created a book in which every word and picture fits her story and its themes. Her matter-of-fact prose indulges in the emotional only as much as her salty characters might. Her illustrations are almost primitive, focusing on scenes that could have attracted Grandma Moses--but Ms. Cooney's work is Grandma Moses slightly retouched by Mary Cassatt. . . . The book speaks clearly to a child's sense of values, never shouting or preaching. .. . It is also a treasure for all island dwellers, visitors and rusticators. . . . One closes the book convinced of the goodness of the life described, andhoping that there may be Tibbettses living and toiling there still.
School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 3 Cooney's ongoing fascination with family ties and elder/younger relationships and her keen awareness of the interdependence of all people and their living styles are newly expressed in Island Boy. She steers her lyrical, lengthy illustrated story with confidence through four generations on a New England coastal island. Pa, Ma, and their 12 children settle the island. When he's ready, young Matthais sails with his uncle's schooner, first as cabin boy and 15 years later, as master. Finally acting on the pull of island memories, Matthais returns and soon marries Hannah, a schoolmistress from Boston. Matthais stays on Tibbetts Island after their three girls grow up and leave, and after Hannah's death. One year, his daughter Annie and her son join Matthais, until Matthais' accidental death. The text is occasionally poetic, with satisfyingly repetitive references to the astrakhan tree and the wild bird, for example, which underscore the book's continuity. Cooney's palette ranges from the clear greens and blues of the island and the water to the browns she employs effectively for domestic interiors and city street scenes. Her humans have individual characteristics. An endpaper map and a well-designed title page introduce this resolutely beautiful account of the interconnectedness of generations and lifestyles. Cooney's flawless transitions between the generations and between third-person points of view always maintain a child's perspective. Island Boy is certain to be a favorite for family sharing, as well as a must for school and public libraries. Teachers will love it; buy extra copies.
Ingram
"Matthias is the youngest son in a family of 12 children who live with their parents on Tibbetts Island, Maine . . . When he is old enough to leave home, Matthias sails around the world, but always knows where his heart lies . . . a cherishable glimpse of a bygone time."--Publishers Weekly. Boston Globe/Horn Book Award. Full-color illustrations.
