Book Review: Emily Windsnap Three Swishy Mermaid Tales books 1-3
Summary: 5 Stars

Its great when you can get such a terrific book series collected together. Emily Windsnap is no regular girl. While her mom is a surface dweller her dad is a mer man who has been imprisoned by King Neptune for marrying and having a child with a human. Despite living on a house boat Emily has always stayed clear of the ocean. When she goes swimming and turns into a mermaid she learns she the classic movie type mermaid where one has fins in the water and legs out of the water. With her new mermaid friend Shona help she learn why mer people fear humans get the aid needed to rescue her dad.

King Neptune moves the family to a island community where humans and mer folk live together. Emily starts going to mermaid school with her new best friend Shona but makes the mistake of accepting a dare into a forbidden cave and wakes Neptune's treasure guardian The kraken. Its up to Emily and Shona to team up and take care of the monster before it comes after everyone. One of the things I find interesting in this book is the school classes Emily taken and how her parents had partly sunk the house book and fix trap doors in each room so that her dad can visit with his wife and daughter in each room.

In the final story while collecting the treasure lost in book 2 Emily finds a diamond ring that Neptune had once given his lover. Anger because the ring reminds him of the woman lost to his life and the ring won't come off the finger of someone that represents both worlds on land and water Neptune will force her to choose to be fully human or fully mermaid. Meanwhile her mother is getting board living in paradise and start to think that Emily mermaid lessons are useless in the real world and wish she would better her education. Emily must find the castle in the mist to get the ring off and convince Neptune that he shouldn't forget his past love so she can get her life return to normal.
