Is an island is living things if not why island is growing?

No. An island is not a living thing. An island can grow by several means. If the crust beneath an island is uplifted by tectonic force it will grow. Deposition of sediments around the edges of an island can cause it to grow. Landslides that enter the sea can cause an island to expand outward. If the island is volcanic, lava flows can add new land to its edges.
