Please remember Island of the Blue Dolphins

I read this Scott O'Dell novel in fourth or fifth grade. Or whenever my Lisa Frank/marine biology/dolphins are my favorite animal phase was, because I know I wanted to read it because 'dolphins' was in the title. I remember actually owning it so I bet I got it from a book order. Book orders were so awesome. Owning that book new made me not realize until today that it was actually written in 1960. Anyway, it's a good book and it won the Newbery Medal, so that's nice.

    Ahh that novel made me so anxious. Any stories that involve being left behind and that sort of thing...
    But, it was definitely a terrific book. I'm thinking I should pick it up and give it a read again. :)

    I do remember this book! I read it in elementary school and stumbled upon it again just a few years ago. I've probably read it about five or six times in my life.

    I did the same thing too, read it in fifth grade because I loved dolphins, and it was (and still is) a wonderful book!
