This is a weekly meme created by Books by Proxy, but up-kept by Lynn’s Book Blog.
The seaweed is always greener, in somebody else’s lake.
This weeks theme: A cover featuring Under the Sea
My Choice: Island of the Blue Dolphins
Covers:
Top to Bottom, left to right:
Cover 1: I like the dolphins but the girl looks kind of dead
Cover 2: I like the art but the dolphins are really tiny and hard to see.
Cover 3: I like the Dolphins, I don’t like the girl
Cover 4: I like the colors, I don’t like the art
Cover 5: Why is the girl part of the island?
Cover 6: No Dolphins and I don’t like the lines on the girls face
Cover 7: This is the cover I read as a kid. I like it but the cliff is too prominent
Cover 8: Super old looking and no dolphins
Cover 9: I like the colors and picture but don’t like the word font
Cover 10: Super old and weird looking
Cover 11: I love the art and the font but no dolphins.
Cover 12: Great colors and I like the picture but you have to look really closely to figure out what is going on.
2nd Place:
I love the picture and the font and it has dolphins, even though they are tiny.
Winner:
I really really like the art and the font and it all goes so well together! I debated if this could be the best because there are no dolphins on the cover, but in the end it still won as my favorite.
Which cover do you like best? Let me know in the comments! What book would you choose for this meme?
I remember reading this when I was a kid! I think the edition I read was the one on the lower left corner, but my favorite cover is probably the one in the top left.

Nice! I liked that one too, but I couldn’t tell if she was dead in the water or swimming, and I don’t remember the book well enough to know which it is, but I don’t think she drowned.

I love your choice, the first cover would have been my second choice, I just really like the colours.
