The main character in the book is Fletcher Moon;
He is a 12 year-old private detective, he has brown hair and white sneakers. He went to Bernstein’s Detective Academy in Washington D.C. Fletcher goes to St.Jerome’s Primary school and secondary school.
Fletcher has a snitch called Doobie who always has boogers hanging out his nostrils. Doobie is 8 years-old he has sharp eyes and a big mouth according to Fletchers description.
There are 4 other main characters to the story which are Herod Sharkley, Red Sharkley, May Devreux and April Devereux. This book is about the biggest case of his life, May and April had lost a curl of hair! Fletcher suspects Herod because he usually has lost things in his pocket. Or he hid it.
When Fletcher has almost cracked the case he gets hit by a bat. He gets rushed to hospital! On his arm was an indentation spelling RED backwards he thought Red had done it but he didn’t. He pairs up with Red to find out who did it! They spy on May and Aprils gang called Les Jeunes Estudiants. Which is about education and framing boys!! They find out they’re going to frame Herod for hurting someone called Masadeez. They don’t get there in time and find out a Connection between all the events the talent show. Finally he found out that Mays father did something to everyone who came in front of May in the previous talent show. After all the revealing of the bad deeds Fletcher whacks the trophy in to Mr Devereux’s (Mays dad) temple!
I really enjoyed Half Moon Investigations because of its good description and action.
I would recommend this book to all action lovers and Mystery lovers because it has lots of other bits I haven’t told you which is very exciting such as the mansion escape. This book is available in the library.

Jacob has been reading "The Super Naturalist" by Eion Colfer.

Here is a quick summary about the book.
The whole book is about 12 year-old Cosmo Hill who has no family so he is a 'no-sponsor.'
He lives in a horrible orphanage called ‘Clarissa Frayne institute for the parentally challenged’ which gets money for companies to experiment on the children.
Clarissa Frayne is situated in Satellite City which has a Myishi 9 Satellite hovering above it. redwood accidentally let him go he got seriously wounded and a parasite attacked him (they sucked the life out of you) and he joined the people who helped him. The super naturalists (people who kill Parasites) then they help a gang of street gang. Then they meet Myishi and try to kill them because they tricked them into trying to kill them ‘cause they actually kill pain.
