A
Nearer Moon written by Melanie Crowder is a story about a young girl, Luna, who is
determined to save her little sister.
The story takes place in a village where over the years the swap
water, as the elders say, has been cursed. Luna’s mother had three rules
never to be broken: don’t go past the
bend in the river; don’t go below the dam; and steer far away from the slick.
The book touches on important topics such as sisterhood, environment and determination with Luna’s character portraying bravery and wholesomeness and amazing sisterly love.
This book is for ages 8-12 but it is slow-paced and a little complex in the beginning.
