Review # 1 was written on 2013-04-22 00:00:00 Angela Orcholski I read this book in like third grade, and I've always remembered it because I found the idea of having a third eye on the end of your finger intriguing-- so, major points for unique idea and memorability! I was trying to distract my boys (5 and 3) a week or two ago, and told them some of what I remembered of this book. They couldn't get enough of it. So I ordered a cheap copy (thanks Thriftbooks!) (because our library here is lame and doesn't have anything), and read it to them and they loved it. I could see them acting out the book as I read, like poking their finger around a corner or covering their eyes but still being able to 'see' because they had an eye on their finger. I'm impressed at myself for how much I remembered of this book from third grade! Some things I didn't pick up on then (or at least didn't remember) was that everyone in the book has a descriptive last name. And some of Emily's adventures were more far fetched than I remembered (or at least not logical) (for Example: holding your finger over the bow of a boat in some fog really wouldn't help you to see that much further than you'd be able to see with your normal eyes; and it's a neat idea that she could find the missing snake up a rain spout, but in reality it would be too dark to see anything up there, especially if a snake was blocking what sunlight would come in. But I didn't point these things out to my boys. They loved the story.)

Review # 2 was written on 2013-10-25 00:00:00 Sohail Khan Duncan Ball created Selby the talking dog and now Emily who is an ordinary girl with the exception that she has an eye on the end of her finger in addition to her other two eyes. A quite bizarre premise is executed in a humorous way with similar trademark style to the Selby series. A short fun read, will the stories be similar in each book of the series, it will be interesting to see.
