DESCRIPTION:
A girl raised by dolphins must choose between two worlds in this critically acclaimed novel about what it means to be a human being.
Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. . From Publishers Weekly "As moving as a sonnet, as eloquently structured as a bell curve," said PW in a starred review of this first-person novel by the Newbery Medalist about a girl who is raised by dolphins and studied by scientists. Ages 9-12
To each his own This work of fiction was purchased as a requirement for a public school assignment. It tells of a girl that is found on a deserted island, that has been "raised" by dolphins. Her rescuers unsuccessfully attempt to assimilate her into human society; only to fail, give up, and send her back to the island to live with the dolphins (spoiler alert).Pros+ The printing was sharp and clear, and the pages were evenly cut and well bound.Cons- The contents were lacking. My teenage son found this story and its conclusion to be almost as ridiculous, as I found his requirement to read it.One star, since the printer did his job well.N. Five Stars I just presented this book to 3 adult friends as a gift.. Five Stars WjesMex A nice narration and good end.
