the island of the blue dolphins

This week I read The Island of Blue Dolphins again. It's a story about an Indian girl  named Karana who is on an island that is shaped like a fish sunning itself around it there are lots of creatures like blue dolphins( of course) and otters and other animals. Her tribe sails to the east but they leave her there. For many years she waits for a ship to come and get her It's the story of how she grows up, making shelter, making weapons, finding food and fighting wild dogs. I found this book kind of boring acctually and it is kind of similar to Hatchet. I've never heard of this book untuil now and I wouldn't give a high recommendation but if you have nothing to do, be my guest.
