“Island of the Blue Dolphins” by Scott O’Dell is one of my favorite books. It is about a teenage girl named Karana who was stranded on the island where she and her tribe used to live. The other members of her tribe left the island to go to the mainland of America(the coast of California) to search for a better future to survive. Unfortunately, Karana’s younger brother Ramo was accidentally left on the island when Karana decided to swim back on her own to find Ramo. But something sadder happened days later: Ramo was killed by the attack of wild dogs. And so Karana had to search a way out her self to survive on this deserted island. Luckily, Karana saved a wild dog and cured him (which actually was also wounded by her in her revenge for Ramo) and naming it Rontu. At least she has a pal now. But living on this island for all her life isn’t the solution, she has to leave and set off for the mainland sometime. What can Karana do to survive?
