Island of the Blue Dolphins 《藍色海豚島》電影原著小說 by Scott O’Dell
★ 1961年紐伯瑞獎得主
★ 根據真實歷史改編，一位獨自生活在聖尼古拉斯島上十八年的女子傳奇，猶如女子版《魯賓遜漂流記》
★ 散發女子堅毅韌性，這裡的生活有美麗，也不可避免地存在危機。

太平洋上有個常年被海豚圍繞的小島，那裡豐富的生態環境孕育著一群印地安人。然而有一天，一船俄羅斯人來此交易後爆發金錢衝突，面對科技武力，Karana的父親與許多戰士戰死，迫使部落決定離開故土，乘船東去。Karana原本也在這艘船上，卻赫然發現她六歲的弟弟沒趕上，儘管船長承諾之後會再次開船回來接他，但Karana為了僅剩的家人，毅然跳船游回島上與弟弟重聚。

如果有家人陪伴，或許等待船下一次回來的時間不會太難熬，然而第二天弟弟竟就在狼群的攻擊下身亡。悲痛與孤獨深深打擊著Karana，她知道自己必須活下去，不只是為了生存，也為了替弟弟報仇的諾言……

In the Pacific there is an island that looks like a big fish sunning itself in the sea. Around it, blue dolphins swim, otters play, and sea elephants and sea birds abound. Once, Indians also lived on the island. And when they left and sailed to the east, one young girl was left behind. — This is the story of Karana, the Indian girl who lived alone for years on the Island of the Blue Dolphins. Year after year, she watched one season pass into another and waited for a ship to take her away. But while she waited, she kept herself alive by building shelter, making weapons, finding food, and fighting her enemies, the wild dogs. It is not only an unusual adventure of survival, but also a tale of natural beauty and personal discovery.
