  <default_description>&lt;P&gt;13 Elements you will find in the first Emily the Strange novel: &lt;/P&gt; &lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt; &lt;P&gt;1. Mystery &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;2. A beautiful golem &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;3. Souped-up slingshots &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;4. Four black cats &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;5. Amnesia &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;6. Calamity Poker &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;7. Angry ponies &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;8. A shady truant officer &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;9. Top-13 lists &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;10. A sandstorm generator &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;11. Doppelg&#196;ngers &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;12. A secret mission &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;13. Earwigs &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt; &lt;P&gt;Emily the Strange: 13 years old. Able to leap tall buildings, probably, if she felt like it. More likely to be napping with her four black cats; or cobbling together a particle accelerator out of lint, lentils, and safety pins; or rocking out on drums/ guitar/saxophone/zither; or painting a swirling feral sewer mural; or forcing someone to say &quot;swirling feral sewer mural&quot; 13 times fast . . . and pointing and laughing. &lt;/P&gt;</default_description>

So, I got the inspiration to write a short story based on this character (based solely on her looks and name, didn't know any of her history) for an English assignment.

    <body><![CDATA[What I like about Emily so far is that she is sarcastic...very much like me.  I feel like the story needs to pick up the pace though.

    <body><![CDATA[Fun read.  Being brillant and having no memory at all leads to a fun mystery.  It is great to watch Emily figure out who she is and isn't as she tries to save ..... you have to read to find out.  4th graders and up would enjoy it.  ]]></body>
