    <book_description><![CDATA[An alternate cover edition can be found <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13014461-island-of-the-blue-dolphins" rel="nofollow noopener">here</a><br /><br />In the Pacific there is an island that looks like a big fish sunning itself in the sea. Around it, blue dolphins swim, otters play, and sea elephants and sea birds abound. Once, Indians also lived on the island. And when they left and sailed to the east, one young girl was left behind.<br /><br />This is the story of Karana, the Indian girl who lived alone for years on the Island of the Blue Dolphins. Year after year, she watched one season pass into another and waited for a ship to take her away. But while she waited, she kept herself alive by building shelter, making weapons, finding food, and fighting her enemies, the wild dogs. It is not only an unusual adventure of survival, but also a tale of natural beauty and personal discovery.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[When you look at me what do you see? Do you see a man with a successful rising career, someone with a body of art, a man with a beautiful wife? Well it hasn't always been like that for me. Born into the deep streets of East Oakland, I had to learn how to survive. I was the second born to a single mother on welfare trying to maintain two young men on her own. Reading this you will see my story, feel my pain and understand my journey of losing my brother and uncle. You will hear about my journey through bodybuilding, see my rise and fall of a promising football career, and walk along with me while I do prison time, drug deals, pimping, stripping, and gang affiliation. You will see my transition to Godly principles, meet my soul mate and experience my new success. You think you know me, well come along with me on this roller coaster ride and see if you can relate to my struggles of learning what true love is really about, something I didn't know anything about until God put my wife in my life. I never knew what love was growing up. I can say now that I have found my place in life and I am where I need to be and fulfilling my dreams. Step into my world!]]></book_description>
