Island of the Blue Dolphins

by Scott O'Dell
I didn't see the movie by the same name, but I'm not sure it followed the book. Based on a true story of an Indian girl who survives 18 years alone on an island. In 1976 the Children's Literature Association named this riveting story one of the 10 best American children's books of the past 200 years.
