The Tail of Emily Windsnap As Reviewed by Sarah

Ten-year-old Sarah has recently finished reading The Tail of Emily Windsnap by Liz Kessler and here is her review:

It’s all about a human girl who finds out she is a mermaid. Her dad is in prison and Mr. Beeston works for Neptune. All mermaids that work for Neptune can wipe memories away and the sirens can wipe out memories too.

Mr. Beeston is wiping Emily’s mom’s memory out. Her mom gets it back at the end.  

Emily’s dad is in a cell, where he cannot break out, and then Emily gets kidnapped too and ends up in a cell too. Emily gets Neptune to let her dad, mom, Mille, Shona and herself out. Shona was asked if she wanted to go on a faraway island. She said no because she has a family of her own. I think that is why she didn’t go.

Emily, her dad and her mom went to the island and lived happily ever after. I think.

What I like about this book: Emily doesn’t know she’s a mermaid and it surprised me that she is.

How good is this book: So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so Great!!!!!!!! It is a great book more than great.

My favorite part of the book: Is when she finds her dad and they live together.

    I really enjoy the Emily Windsnap books. I love the Spiderwick fieldguide because I’m really interested in mythical creatures such as mermaids. I like your little description about the book. This one is my favorite in the trilogy. That’s a nice picture :c) I like the Mom best.

    I would highly reccomend reading this book. The beginning starts out slow but by the next chapter you’ll find the cover glued to your fingertips. The Tail of Emily Widsnap was a terrific book and I can’t wait to read book two Emily Windsnap And The Monster From The Deep

    That was rude. That was mean. She is only ten years old, cut her some slack. Be nice!
