SuitabookThe Tail of Emily Windsnap (Emily Windsnap #1)
Liz Kessler
- Reading
- Read the opening as an invitation to explore the premise of Emily’s identity. Check the ending before drawing conclusions about its message.
- Themes
- A hidden identity: Emily describes having an unusual secret and discovering that she is a mermaid. The premise places secrecy and unusual identity at the centre, but does not show whether the book affirms, criticises or complicates concealment.
- Worth knowing
- You may wish to notice how Emily’s secret affects her sense of self and interactions with others, while avoiding assumptions about whether concealment is portrayed positively or negatively.
