Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'dell. I first read this book in 4th grade and it was such a perfect read for me. It wasn't directed toward girls or boys, it had a little bit of everything for all kids. Since then I have read the book many more times and love it even more each read.
There is a sequel to the book although I cannot remember the name off the top of my head. There is also a movie and follows the book almost perfectly, although most of it is silent as there is not much dialog in the book. It was a fun book to read and I think kids with active imaginations would love it.
If you liked these books you'll like IotBD: Julie of the Wolves, Call it Courage, and Hatchet
