Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a science fiction book about a girl who is coming from a new community in space, and she ends up having to slowly get used to gravity by living in an under water community. I know something happens and I had always thought it was "Crisis in deep sea 9" or something similar, but I've been looking now for the better part of 20 years to no avail. I read it in grade 5, which was roughly 2005. My teacher said it was a gift from her brother whom I believe was in Ireland if that helps. Also, I believe it's in GM or YA.

Thanks so much in advance, and if it can't be found, at least I'll know I've tried as many options as possible.

You were so close;'Crisis On Conshelf 10' by Monica Hughes.
"When Moon-born, 15-year-old Kepler Masterman visits Earth, friendly relatives welcome him to their experimental community deep under the ocean, where he discovers a sinister situation linked to the mysterious, water-breathing Gillmen. By the author of "Ring-Rise, Ring-Set".

Dawn, can you confirm that Crisis on Conshelf Ten by Monica Hughes is your book?

I'm waiting for it to get to my library- It doesn't have very many titles, so they're borrowing from another library somewhere. I'll let you know as soon as I can!
