When fourteen-year-old Anna Shepherd receives mysterious messages, she knows they are from her twin brother, Toby, who left two weeks earlier aboard an oyster dredge boat. The messages are only the beginning. A strange letter written in a foreign language arrives for her in the mail, and soon Anna realizes that someone is following her. An exciting blend of mystery and history, Oyster Moon is set on Maryland's Eastern Shore in the late 1800s, at the peak of the tumultuous Oyster Wars. Grades 4 to 8
this book was so good and the author was so smart too, she knew altituff about stuff like history andyster boats and twins and friendship and family brother-sister love, even though MY brother is really annoying and not so cool as the one in the book, I guess I love him, too, like the girl in the book

I thought that Oyster Moon is a great book because I had no idea that the people on the drudger boats could be so cruel. In fact, I had no idea about this whole topic. It is an educational book without the reader realizing it. I would reccomend Oyster Moon to any reader, young or old.
