Download Island of the Blue Dolphins Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Far off the coast of California looms a harsh rock known as the island of San Nicholas. Dolphins flash in the blue waters around it, sea otter play in the vast kep beds, and sea elephants loll on the stony beaches. Here, in the early 1800s, according to history, an Indian girl spent eighteen years alone, and this beautifully written novel is her story. It is a romantic adventure filled with drama and heartache, for not only was mere subsistence on so desolate a spot a near miracle, but Karana had to contend with the ferocious pack of wild dogs that had killed her younger brother, constantly guard against the Aleutian sea otter hunters, and maintain a precarious food supply. More than this, it is an adventure of the spirit that will haunt the reader long after the book has been put down. Karana's quiet courage, her Indian self-reliance and acceptance of fate, transform what to many would have been a devastating ordeal into an uplifting experience. From loneliness and terror come strength and serenity in this Newbery Medal-winning classic.

"A powerful ranching dynasty, the Campbell-Strayhorn family has had more than its share of scandal and tragedy. A new generation coming into its own will do whatever it takes to ensure the survival of the vast Circle C--along with their tiny Texas town--even if it means betraying those they love. Jude Strayhorn, the smart, free-spirited daughter of the Circle C's owner, intends to buy her deceased neighbor's abandoned ranch, the 6-0. When she catches a stranger trespassing, she discovers, to her dismay, that the handsome cowboy is not a criminal but an heir with plans of his own. Although it's been years since Brady Fallon set foot in Willard County, rebuilding the 6-0 means everything to him. Until, that is, he encounters beautiful Jude Strayhorn. To make ends meet, he hires on as a Circle C ranch hand, only then realizing it'll be harder than he thought to avoid a tangle with the boss's daughter--especially since she wants the 6-0 for herself."--Page 4 of cover.
