An usual combination of school story and home narrative.

Finished this yesterday, enjoyed it much more than I thought I would! The earlier chapters have very funny moments, Dorry's journal is hilarious! It's less fun after Katy's accident, as she becomes tediously good, but it was interesting to read as an adult and realise how privileged these kids were. Cousin Helen must be quite wealthy to live so comfortably though she can't walk! #whatkatydid #childrens #classic #childrensclassic #susancoolidge

yayeahyeah Yay! I agree it's less fun once she gets good/boring. What Katy Did Next is well worth reading too! (3rd book, after At School) 8y
juliannebenford @Yayeahyeah I'm now rereading At School. Definitely ship Clover and Rose Red! 8y
yayeahyeah Yay awesome! Yeah they would be a cute couple :) 8y

I thought you might also like to see this #inscription. My name isn't secretly Clarissa, I got this book secondhand! (I hope that explains it all..!) (Also I was far too old to be given this book for Christmas in 2008) #whatkatydid #childrens #classic #childrensclassic #susancoolidge

When I was a kid I had a few of my mum's old children's books and one of my favourites was What Katy Did at School, even though I never read any of the others in the series. I have a cold and feel sleepy so today I'm going to stay in my pyjamas and find out finally how Katy became so prim and proper she ran a society against flirting... #whatkatydid #childrens #classic #childrensclassic #susancoolidge

yayeahyeah I really love this series - intrigued to see what you think of this one having read book two first! 8y
