#1 - Island of the Blue Dolphins: 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.

#2 - Zia: This is a very different kind of book than the first book, and though Karana is in it, it is more historical fiction about the conditions of native people around the time of the Spanish Missions in California. It follows Zia, Karana's niece, who lives in a Mission on the coast. She dreams of taking a boat to the Island of the Blue Dolphins to rescue her aunt. Life is not easy for the indigenous people who live and work in the Mission. The descriptions of the Mission's exploitation of the indigenous populations is historically accurate, more or less, including the unpaid farm labour, the white men's diseases, etc. This book does a good job of breaking down the why's and how's so kids could get a better understanding of how unjust situations came to be.
