Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell

1961 Newbery Medal

In the beginning of the book, a ship came to the island with Aleuts. They said they cam in peace only to hunt. But when they were about to leave, the did not pay and there was a battle. When they were taken from the island, Karana tried to rescue Ramo but was left behind. Then 18 years later she was rescued but died 2 years later.

It was a good book except it skipped around a lot.

3 stars - It was a good book.
