Katy, a twelve-year-old gangly tomboy, dreams of blossoming into a
sophisticated young woman, capable of grand deeds and adventures.
She is however prone to mischief, and leads her six siblings into
various scrapes, much to the annoyance of her kindly father and
domineering aunt. Her life is turned upside down by a terrible
accident, which leaves her a bedridden invalid. Now she is forced
to learn the virtues of patience, sacrifice and hopefulness, as she
comes to terms with her disability. A heart-warming tale that has
become a children's classic since its publication in 1872, Susan
Coolidge's What Katy Did is a lesson in the value of good humour
and perseverance against the odds for young readers. Beautifully
illustrated by Susan Hellard, this is a poignant and timeless story
that every child should read.
