Meet Emily, the peculiar soul with long black hair, a wit of fire, and a posse of slightly sinister black cats. Famous for her barbed commentary and independent spirit, this rebel-child in black has spawned an Internet and merchandising phenomenon (Emily's Web site gets 35,000 hits per month!). Emily the Strange, her first book, captures the quintessential Emily, featuring her most beloved quips and a host of new ones. Anarchist, heroine, survivor, this little girl with a big personality appeals to the odd child in us all. Average Rating:

Rating: - GreatShe has an ironic sense about life and that is marvelous. The ilustraition is really nice. Perhaps the writing is too short but you don't need to say too much when the images talk by themself. Rating: - NOte for those who are better off staying off Emily StrangeFirst, understand that this book isn't really a storybook. where'd you get that idea? It may be plain but don't judge. people say that Emily Strange is for those who are, "Gee, I think i'm so Gothic!" God...you don't even have to be to buy this book. I wasn't, and I am completely hooked on emily right now. But I must admit that Emily is for people who are sometimes attracted by the dark side of life. Also, some people find Emily offensive when it comes to her apparent ways of 'strangeness'. ... Read More
