My daughter read this in 5th grade and thought it was great.
From the back cover:
Oak Grove is a dry, dusty town haunted by memories of a past flood. Everyone dreads the water -- except two brother, Trevor and Eli McGill. Nicknamed Trout and Eel for ther darting quickness and the thin webbing between their fingers and toes, the boys dream of the farthest seas of a mysterious pas they barely remember.
Martha Glimmer, the boys' fierce and loyal friend, has her own reasons to help them reach their hearts' desire. She is running away from her own memories -- of her mother's death, of her father's grief, of the time before her heart was broken.
Little do Martha, Trout, and Eel know that running away will lead them on a journey back to their own, true natures.....
