1961 Newbery Medal
Karana, an Indian girl, was stranded on an island for many years. To keep herself alive she made weapons, built shelter, found food and even had to fight wild dogs and her enemies. The island she is stranded on is the Island of the Blue Dolphins, located in the middle of the Pacific. This adventure is not just survival but also natural discovery.
I thought the book was a great adventure and I would definitely describe this to many people.
4 stars - It was a great book and I recommend it to others.
