"Signe's gumbo. Dogie's two-word song. Mr. Beauchamp's night-blooming cyrus. All three of those things had depended upon the blue moon and all of them, every one had been ruined." Ruined by crabs, or lack of them, since Keeper set them free. Thinking the three grown-ups on Oyster Ridge Road are mad at her, Keeper and her dog head out to sea, looking for the one person Keeper believes can help: her mother. A mermaid. Author's note. Black-and-white mixed-media illustrations.
