This week my girls and I continued reading Island of the Blue Dolphins. We have gotten to the point where Karana sacrifices her place on the boat with the white men to go back for her brother who was accidentally left on the shore. We had friends over this weekend and one of them saw the book and asked which of the girls was reading it. The girls answered that we all were. The friends are originally from California and stated that they had visited the burial site of Karana in California once. One of the couple spoke with the girls, explaining that this was one of his favorite books ever. I love seeing literature span all ages and demographics and provide something of substance for people to discuss.
