La isla de los delfines azules, or 'Island of the Blue Dolphins' in English, by Scott O'Dell, is a historical novel based on the true story of a Native American girl named Karana. She is left alone for 18 years on an island off the California coast after her tribe is relocated and she jumps off the rescue ship to stay with her younger brother, who is accidentally left behind. When her brother is killed by wild dogs, Karana survives on her own, showing incredible resilience and resourcefulness. She befriends the animals on the island, including a wild dog who becomes her companion, and adapts to her solitary life, finding strength and peace in her natural surroundings. The novel explores themes of survival, loneliness, and the relationship between humans and the environment.
