The Tail of Emily Windsnap

By: Liz Kessler

Narrated by: Finty Williams

For as long as she can remember, twelve-year-old Emily Windsnap has lived on a boat. And, oddly enough, for just as long as her mother has seemed anxious to keep Emily away from the water. But when Mom finally agrees to let her take swimming lessons, Emily makes a startling discovery--about her own identity, the mysterious father she's never met, and the thrilling possibilities and perils shimmering deep below the water's surface. With a sure sense of suspense and richly imaginative details, first-time author Liz Kessler lures us into a glorious world where mermaids study shipwrecks at school and Neptune rules with an iron trident--an enchanting fantasy about family secrets, loyal friendship, and the convention-defying power of love.©2004 Liz Kessler; (P)2004 Random House, Inc.

Swishy

I discovered these books a while back while purchasing them for a friend's daughter. I had to read them first of course. I fell in love with them then and it's lovely to now hear them narrated. it brings a special life to the story. I especially like the descriptive details of the undersea world. The narrator did a lovely job of bringing all that to life as well as bringing the emotion to the relationships. I'm looking forward to listening to the rest of the series as well. The stories appeal to my inner mermaid and they will always be favorites for me.

I listen to this book at 10 years old.

still holds up now that I'm 28. it was one of my first audiobooks. I adored it then and it still holds a special place in my heart. is it the best for a 28 year old? nah. it's written for pre-teens and I recommend it for all ages 9-14. it's a great gateway series that opens up a love of reading and books. highly recommend if you're looking for a good mermaid book for pre-teens or even an easy listen as an adult.

I LOVE it

It is amazing!! I hope everyone who reads it will love it to! It's also very long:)
