Summary Of Accuracy In Island Of The Blue Dolphinss

What would you do if you found out that your friends had committed a crime that caused a boy’s death? Would you turn them in even if you were slightly involved in the crime? Well that is the predicament that the main character in Red Kayak faces. The major plot events in Red Kayak go like this: Mrs. DiAngelo and her son Ben were in a kayaking accident, and Ben dies as a result, leaving Brady, the main character, traumatized. Later, Brady finds out that his two friends, J.T. and Digger caused the kayak to sink. Brady also remembers a day when the three of them were swimming and Digger was acting angry at the DiAngelos for buying his grandfather’s farm. Brady had suggested to put holes in the kayak, so now Brady has to decide what to do because the plan to sink the kayak was his idea. Things like this make Red Kayak a good example of realistic fiction. Realistic fiction is a type of story that might really happen. The five elements of realistic fiction are: credible events, authentic characters, real setting, true-to-life themes, and believable dialogue. Credible events are events that could really happen. Authentic characters are characters that develop over time. Real setting shows a setting that could really exist. True-to-life themes are themes that could be applied to one’s own life. And finally, believable dialogue contains realistic conversations. Red Kayak is realistic fiction because of its credible events, authentic characters, and true-to-life themes.

A familial bond cannot be broken. As genetics pass from one end of the family tree to another, a series of exchanged physical and–more significant in terms of the story–behavioral traits, moreover, make themselves apparent.

The topics of betrayal and subsequent neglect are present in an almost unavoidable continuous cycle throughout Michael Dorris’ A Yellow Raft on Blue Water, as each generation of women faced a series of abrupt and unforeseen deceptions by those either in an influential position in their lives or those possessing their trust, leading to damaged and unresolved relationships.

   As the subject of the first section of Doris' novel, A Yellow Raft In Blue Water, Rayona faces many problems that are unique to someone her age. Ray's mixed race heritage makes her a target of discrimination on the reservation. Problems in her family life (or lack thereof), give Rayona a reversed role in which she is the mother taking care of Christine. In dealing with these issues, Rayona learns a lot about herself and others.

“A Yellow Raft in Blue Water” is divided into three sections narrated by three different Native American women: Rayona, Christine and Ida. All three of these women are all related. Rayona is the daughter of Christine, and Christine believes she is the daughter of Ida, but Ida is actually her half-sister and cousin. All three sections were a part of a larger story; they all helped support or complete each other. The structure of this novel forces us as readers to be more active. It causes us to look more closely, and fit together the stories of the three women. When the ladies’ are explaining the same event, it sometimes feels

On a scale of 1 to 3, with 3 being the highest, I would rate, Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O’Dell a 3. One reason why I give this classic novel a 3, is because, unlike other novels based on true life ones, Scott O’Dell manages to captivate the readers. He captivates his readers because with the way he writes, you are able to transport yourself into the novel, imagining yourself on the adventure with Karana to get the teeth of the bull sea elephant, “Again the young bull’s flank was ripped deep, and again the force of the blow threw him backward into the water...The sound was like rocks crashing together” (O’Dell 83). Another reason why I give Island of the Blue Dolphins a 3, is because it showcases a strong female lead, Karana.
