==Island Of The Blue Dolphins==. Karana lived on a an island known as The Island Of The Blue Dolphins in a small village of huts. When Karana was 12, Aleuts came to her island to hunt sea otter in exchanage for goods. They however, don't really do their share of giving them goods.
Island of the Blue Dolphins is based upon a real story in which the Lost Woman of San Nicolas lived alone on an island from 1835 to 1853. Karana is a twelve year-old girl living on the Island of Blue Dolphins, located about 75 miles southwest of present day Los Angeles. Her people, the people of Ghalas-at, are visited by explorers from the Aleutians (Russians) who come and bargain for the ability to hunt sea otters.
