Every child, at a certain point in time, wishes to become a mermaid! And when they hit that phase, this is the series to get them to read, full of mermaid magic and perfect for children aged 9+.
The books follow a young girl called Emily Windsnap, who lives on a boat and discovers as she grows older that whenever she swims in the sea she grows a tail. She is a real-life mermaid. And soon enough she makes some truly wonderful friends, and is off on fantastical adventures on pirates ships and tropical islands, icy lands of mountains and glaciers and underwater worlds.
