Review - Three Times Lucky

Three Times LuckyThree Times Lucky by Sheila Turnage

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another nominee for the Utah Beehive Book Award for children's fiction. 

A great book about community togetherness, family, friendship, and mystery. It's a good book for those that like strong and spunky female characters.  Great humor, nothing really offensive in the book.

Plot (from Goodreads.com):  Rising sixth grader Miss Moses LoBeau lives in the small town of Tupelo Landing, NC, where everyone's business is fair game and no secret is sacred. She washed ashore in a hurricane eleven years ago, and she's been making waves ever since. Although Mo hopes someday to find her "upstream mother," she's found a home with the Colonel--a café owner with a forgotten past of his own--and Miss Lana, the fabulous café hostess. She will protect those she loves with every bit of her strong will and tough attitude. So when a lawman comes to town asking about a murder, Mo and her best friend, Dale Earnhardt Johnson III, set out to uncover the truth in hopes of saving the only family Mo has ever known.

Now I am reading Mirage by Clive Cussler.
