Island of the Blue Dolphins was written by Scott O'Dell and won the Newbery Medal Award. It has no pictures, and was published in 1960 by Scott O'Dell. You can find the book at the Brookfield Public Library.Island of the Blue Dolphins is about a young Indian girl named Karana. She lives by herself on an island, the Island of the Blue Dolphins. This book is about how she survived on the island: fighting wild dogs, exploring, and hiding from her enemies, the Aleuts.
My favorite part in Island of the Blue Dolphins is when the Aleuts come. There is a girl with them. One day, as the girl gathers food, she spots Karana. What will happen? Will Karana befriend the girl? Will a war break out? Find out in this book, Island of the Blue Dolphins.
When I think about dolphins, I think WARM. When I think Aleuts, I think ccccold. I wonder what it would be like to live alone on an island? It sounds fascinating.
ReplyDeleteActually, you are right in thinking ccccold when thinking of the Aleuts. The Aleuts live in Russia.
