Summary: The Tail of Emily Windsnap is a great book filled with adventure. It is about Emily a supposedly regular 12 year old girl. Who discovers that she is a mermaid. At the same time she forms an amazing friendship. Read this book and join Emily in an underwater adventure!
Recommendation: I rate this book 5 stars out of 5 stars. It is great for 3rd to 5th graders. It might be to easy for 6th graders but to hard for 2nd. It is a fantastic book to read. It is also a book that does not let you put it down.
