    About this audiobook

    What Katy Did at School depicts the adventures of a twelve-year-old American girl, Katy Carr, and her family who live in the lakeside Ohio town of Burnet in the 1860's. Katy is a tall untidy tomboy, forever getting into scrapes but wishing to be beautiful and beloved.

    When a terrible accident makes her an invalid, her illness and four-year recovery gradually teach her to be as good and kind as she has always wanted. In this book Susan Coolidge describes boarding school life of Katy and her sister Colver. The fictional Carr family was modeled after her own, with Katy Carr inspired by author herself. The brothers and sisters were modeled on her four younger siblings.

    Susan Coolidge

    Sarah Chauncey Woolsey was born in 1835 into a wealthy and influential family in Cleveland, Ohio. She worked as a nurse during the American Civil War before establishing a career as a successful and prolific writer of novels, short stories and poems. Her most famous book, What Katy Did, published under her pseudonym Susan Coolidge, was inspired by her own childhood growing up with four younger siblings. Its publication in 1872 was followed by four sequels. She never married and lived most of her adult life in Rhode island where she died in 1905.
