Product Description
Product Description
Katy Carr intends to be beautiful and beloved and as sweet as an angel one day. For now, though, her hair is forever in a tangle, her dress is always torn and she doesn't care at all for being called 'good'. But then a terrible accident happens and Katy must find the courage to remember her daydreams and the delightful plans she once schemed; for when she is grown up she wants to do something grand ...This is a wonderful, family story, with an inspiring introduction from the hugely popular Cathy Cassidy.

Beautifully written, touching story., Jan 30 2012

This review is from: Puffin Classics What Katy Did (Paperback)
My nine year old daughter was describing the plot and was moved to tears. A young girl learns to respect her sibling's views and become less 'bossy'....my daughter is the eldest of three children. She tries to be resposible and help...but sometimes crosses over into very bossy territory. She is very sensitive to this, and feels terrible when she does...and this book brought her to tears...it was important for her to read that she is not alone with the things she deals with.

My grandmother gave me this book when I was a child and I have loved it ever since. Beautiful tale told in a realistic, heart-warming way.
