Opinion
My opinion is that this book is awesome and if
you like dolphins you should read this book, also
if you just read a little it will make you read
the whole book.

CONFLICT AND RESOLUTION
One conflict and resolution is the disagreement
about if they should unlock the doors or lock
Mila in her room by herself. Also, another
conflict is if they should take her back to Cuba.
They took her back to the sea and her dolphin
family.
