EMILY WINDSNAP AND THE PIRATE PRINCE is the first book in the series that I've ever read. I think I own a couple of the others, books I bought when my own older reader was the right age to enjoy them, but we never got around to reading them. I enjoyed the book. It was a super quick read, and even had a few unexpected twists. Emily makes a spunky, fun narrator and the plot moves quickly through a series of challenges as Emily and her team of pirates race toward the treasure and Sam's chance to be the next pirate king.

I think the series is a great fit for fans of The Frog Princess books or CLIFTON CHASE AND THE ARROW OF LIGHT by Jaimie Engle.

I actually really liked this one! I thought the pirate plot was so interesting and that a lot of mature growth went on in this book. Emily grapples with what what people want her to be versus what she actually is/wants to be herself.

I also thought the way that Emily and Aaron ended their relationship so maturely was so interesting and good for young kids to read considering how young the characters actually are.

I wish that there was a little more of Shona but she did play a pretty decent role in the story.

I had my son (7) read this to me because he loves all things ocean and he loved it! He loved seeing the pirate life and the pirates race to find the treasure! He was happy Emily enjoyed pirate life because he thinks pirates are awesome too. Emily always seems to find her way in life and I enjoyed listening to my son engaged in the story!
