13 Elements you will find in the first Emily the Strange novel: mystery, a beautiful golem, souped-up slingshots, four black cats, amnesia, Calamity Poker, angry ponies, a shady truant officer, top-13 lists, a sandstorm generator doppelgangers, a secret mission, and Earwigs. 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 "swirling feral sewer mural" 13 times fast and pointing and laughing.
