Nim's Island

by Wendy Orr

Before you see the movie you should read the book!!! It's a book about an island girl named Nim. She lives with her father on the island. Her father is a scientist. One day he goes off to study plankton. After her father doesn't come back for a while, Nim starts to worry about him. What if something happened to him? Who will save her? You'll have to read the book to find out.

The movie is my all time favorite movie, but I haven't read the book yet. Is the book as good as the movie?
