The book tells the life of Kya, "The Marsh Girl" who has been abandoned by her entire family before she is old enough to take care of herself. Her one day at school teachers her how different she is from everyone else who lives in town. She spends the next several years fighting to survive on her own with little help. She lives in the marsh among her wildlife friends, but still yearns for human connections. Man vs nature is a key theme. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
