If i were to become a book, the last copy of that book in fact, I would choose to be Island of the Blue Dolphins  by Scott O'Dell. The book is about an tribal girl from an island off the coast of California. Her and her brother get stranded on the island when there tribe leaves with the white men. When the girls brother dies she is left to fend for herself. She endures many challenges including making weapons to defend her self. This is a problem because women in her tribe are forbidden to construct weapons. She also faces a pack of wild dogs that is trying to kill her to have a fresh meal. She wounds the pack leader and nurses him back to health and the dog and her become companions.

The reason I would choose to be this book is because the book shows a person with confidence, drive, will, compassion and love. She shows strength, courage and stability. The reason for being this book is because all of these traits are what I want for myself. Being all of these things would help me achieve my goals and help me accomplish my most challenging goal.

Another reason I would Choose to be this book is because the setting that it contains. I was born in CCalifornia and the island where this takes place is just up the coast from where i lived. Plus i have always been intrigued by being stranded on an island to fend for myself. I think i would get and amazing thrill from living off the land and trying to survive on what nature has provided for us. And lastly i am just a beach bum. Anything that requires a beach i am there.

So in the end being Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell would be amazing because it is all my hopes dreams and aspirations in the confines of the pages in the book.
