This book was a winner!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Zia (Hardcover)
The plot of the story was about a girl named Zia and her brother Mando who where determined to find their Aunt Karana on the Island of the Blue Dolphins. They lived at a mission and worked there too. They found a row boat that washed a shore after a hurricane. The boat had the word Boston and then the letter "B" and then the letter "Y ". Later they found out that the name was "Boston boy" .Zia and Mando decided that they would take the boat and sail to the Island of the Blue Dolphins and look for their Aunt Karana. So they gathered food and another oar because the boat had came with one oar and a sail. After about a month they where ready to sail. Unfortunately they didn't make it. But Zia talked with a captain that lived on a hill on her Island. He said that he was sailing to the Island in a few months. When the time came he sailed to the Island. He came back a few weeks later to find all the people gone but he found Karana. They found Zia in jail. A few days later she was let go and she met her aunt. About 6 months later Karana died and Zia took her dog that Karana left behind. I'll leave the rest for you to read!

Review for Zia,
By A Customer
This review is from: Zia (Mass Market Paperback)
Zia by Scott O Dell is a book about an islander who wishes to be reunited with her long lost aunt. Zia only has her little brother and the mission to take care of her. Zia 's brother is a determined character because he always tries to achive his goal. Whether it's catching the biggest fish in the sea, or paddling 60 miles on a canoe to find his aunt, Mando always tries his best to follow his dreams. My favorite part of this book is when Zia and Mando stock their canoe with rations and set out on the long and dangerous voyage to their aunt.

Boring and Throw away,
By artgurl from OR (Grants Pass, Oregon USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zia (Mass Market Paperback)
I had to read this book because of a school project. This was a terrible book. I hated it from the beginning because it had no plot, story line, or good characters. About halfway through the book, one of the main characters, Mando, just left. it didn't say where or why he left, but Scott O'Dell didn't bring him back in the book. I am a little glad because Mando was just a pain. But unfortuanatly, Zia stayed. She was in every scene and was very boring. If anyone wants to read it, then i hope this helps you... THROW IT AWAY!!!
