If there had been boys and girls on the island, the author would have had to make some very different decisions. For one, some of the names would have had to been different. Another is that, the author would have had to describe situations from a girl's point of view instead of a boy's only. The author also would have had to change the plot a little because not all girls would do some of the things that the boys do in the book. Not all girls would go hunting or chant in a circle in the rain. There also would have been a different sort of perspective in the book along with another type of intelligence that wasn't in the book. These are some of the different decisions that would have been made.
