this book was truly amazing you have no idea how good this book is until you read this book. In the first book, the tail of Emily Windsnap is about when Emily first got her tail and turn her into a full time mermaid and it was such an inspiring story that a mermaid was fitting into the human world oh and shes half human and half mermaid her mom is human and her fathers a merman so when you put 2 and 2 together you get Emily Windsnap! In the second book,Emily Windsnap and the monster and the deep, where Emily accidentally wakes up the monster of the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle which is the Neptune's greatest and most faithful servant... the Kraken! And do you know when the kraken doesn't have its full rest ... he goes to only insctive it has when
I read all of these books in 5th grade and loved them! They were all very good and held my interest the whole time. This trilogy is about a girl named Emily Windsnap finding out that she is half mermaid and half human. At first I thought the books were going to be cheesy and childish because they were about mermaids but they were actually very good :)
This book is about an ordinary girl that suddenly discover herself a mermaid and it was a secret kept from her by the underwater world as her mother is a human.
This book is like amazing it's one of my favorite books I think it is a really awesome book to read because they're exciting and it's a lot of cliffhangers!
If you want to read a young adult (12 year olds?) book about friendship and has a fun mermaid theme these are great. Totally clean. An easy read. It was perfect for those late night newborn stages.
Swishy! :) my first mermaid novel to read. HAHA. it's kinda of cute, and the adventures never leave you wondering when will Neptune arrives any minute. The best part I guess of the book are the parts about the description of total soceity underwater, and their cool subjects (ex. Beauty and Deportment), and the jewels and love between merpeople and humans.
I think people younger than me will enjoy it better, but for those folks who still want to enjoy this kind of stories. I can say this is good. :)
the Tale of Emily Windsnap was a really good book! What i loved about it is that it took you in a whole nother world. For example the world it took you in was mermaid land. It had lots of creative details in the story. It was also very emotional because she was out to search for one of her family members that she had never seen before because they were taken away from the family. Read this book i think you will like it!
I read chunks of each of these books and Kessler's fourth with my 7 year old at bedtime. She'd read during the day, so I didn't get to read every last word, but I thoroughly enjoyed them. I admired Emily's bravery and value placed on strong friendships. A boyfriend is introduced in the third (I think it's the third and he sticks around for the fourth) which was a new concept to read about for my 7 year old. I liked them!
Emily Windsnap books are really awesome. They describe what Emily is like and her friends and her adventures. I read these books before and I am reading them again. I love the adventures that are described so well. Emily Windsnap just discovered she's a semi-mer. That means she is half mermaid, half human. Read this series to enjoy reading.
Liz is so good at capturing a teenage girl's musings as she turns into a mermaid! She has lots of adventures and meets new friends and gets into all sorts of trouble. Emily is a wonderful heroine that never leaves her messes undone!
