Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell

1961 Newbery Medal

Well, it starts out as Karana and her tribe are together on the island. Then the Aleuts come to hunt otter and kill multiple men of Karana's tribe. After that, Karan's tribe leaves with white men and leave Karana and her brother behind. Then a bunch of months go by and Karana's brother dies. Plus Karana goes to the island of her people.

I though it was a great book with wonderful detail and excitement.

4 stars - It was a great book and I recommend it to others.
