I remember reading this as a kid it was one of my favorite books
-
I read this as a child. The story fills me with sadness to this day whenever I think of it.

Too sad. I read the book years ago. Painful to think about it again.

We read the book in class for school and then watched the movie in class in the fourth grade when I was ten and I never forgot either of them. I was fascinated by this story and I still am as an adult, especially with all the new information that’s come to light about the Lone Woman and her people in recent years.

I remember reading the Island of the Blue Dolphin in 3rd grade. The story has stayed with me since then, especially since we could see the Islands when we would go to the beach in Ventura.

I'm from canada and we read it in 6th grade. I was always fascinated by the story. Sad and courageous

I read the book in 4th grade like everyone else. It was massively formative for me, and it has never left my memory. It's always stuck with me as one of my top favorite books I've ever read and I still have a copy my step grandmother had years ago that she let me keep. I still read it every once in a while. I dream of visiting that island but as it's still Navy owned, I have to wonder if that's ever going to be possible.
