About this listen

Tall, gangly, and tomboyish Katy was badly injured in an accident which has left her partially paralysed. This has been tough on the wild girl, who is no longer able to play with her siblings or roam around nature the way she used to. But Katy has now regained some feelings in her legs, and can finally start to slowly walk again. Her father feels she is healthy enough to start school, so he sends her off to be educated. It is with mixed emotions that Katy goes. Starting school will be exciting, but won’t she miss her siblings too much to learn anything?

This is the second book in the Katy series, which has been elected one of the best children’s books by its readers. The series takes place in 1860's Ohio.

Could be better

I loved the Katy stories as a child so thought I’d treat myself! Obviously I was very familiar with the story but the narration ruined it. The accent was harsh and it was garbled

Good reader...bad mic

Although I really enjoyed the reader's voice, there was something with the Mic that ruined the performance.
