Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell

Karana was on the Island of the Blue Dolphins for 18 years before being rescued by Santa Barbara Mission.
In Island of the Blue Dolphins, the lesson was that a person can live by herself, but that it is far better to have friends. Karana lived for 18 years on the island of Ghalas-at. Her village had left by boat for another home but Karana stayed behind with her brother who was accidentally stranded. He died and she lived by herself.

Dolphins,
One example of irony in "Island of the Blue Dolphins" is that Karana, the protagonist, is initially forced to live in isolation on the island to escape danger, but ultimately finds companionship with animals and learns to live independently. Another example is how the island's serene and beautiful surroundings mask the harsh realities of survival and loneliness that Karana faces.
The author of "Island of the Blue Dolphins" is Scott O'Dell. Published in 1960, the novel tells the story of Karana, a young girl who is left alone on an island after her tribe is forced to leave. The book is inspired by the true story of Juana Maria, the last Native American to live on San Nicolas Island off the coast of California. O'Dell's work explores themes of survival, resilience, and the connection to nature.
