[LM_NET] BOOK: Red moon at Sharpsburg by Wells

[Frederick Muller <mullinator52@GMAIL.COM>]

Wells, Rosemary. Red moon at Sharpsburg. Viking, 20097 [978-0-670-03638-7]
It is at the start of the Civil War and India’s school closes.
Because she is a smart girl, her family gets her a tutor.  Eventually
her father turns up missing so India goes to find him.  She eventually
finds herself in the midst of the Battle of Antietam. This book is
very descriptive in telling about the horrors the Civil war, the
medical practices and how it divides the people.  It is not for the
light-hearted.  This 236 page book is great historical fiction for
middle school.  It includes a bibliography and author notes at the
end.
