I love to read and here's a book that takes place right off the coast of California -

Island of the Blue Dolphins - Book Review
- "Island of the Blue Dolphins" by Scott O'Dell, was winner of the Newbery Medal in 1961 and joins my list of treasured books, because of the example of resourcefulness by the young girl, Karana.
