Select Color Range?

Does Photoshop Elements not include the "Select Color Range" tool? If so is there some kind of work around?

There is no Select Color Range tool in Elements.  I suppose a workaround would be to use the Magic Wand Tool and adjust the Tolerance slider.

There is also a cheap Add-on program that has a select color range tool but I don't think it has the range of features in Photoshop CC.

    Thank you! The plug-in works like charm. 

     

    It's not perfect but it has given me back the "Select Highlights" and "Select Shadows" tools that I used almost every day in my very outdated copy of Photoshop.
