What Katy Did Next

By Susan Coolidge and Susan Collidge

Book Overview

Katy Carr can hardly believe it when she is invited to spend a whole year in Europe with Mrs Ashe and Amy. Although a year seems like a long time away from her beloved family, living in the small American town of Burnet, Katy embarks enthusiastically on her greatest adventure. This charming story, first published in 1886, is the third of Susan Coolidge's three hugely popular Katy books.

Customer Reviews

A Lovely Book

When I found this series, I loved them. I went right through What Katy Did and What Katy Did at School. I love romance, and was excited when I found that there was romance in What Katy Did Next, I loved the book. But was slightly disappointed 3/4 through the book, and at the end. I must say again the book is a fabulous one, but if you are looking for romantic classics, I wouldn't turn to this series. There is very little romance I must say. And I was not pleased with the ending. But in spite of that, the series was delicious!

This Book is Very...Good

I really liked "What Katy Did Next." I am a big fan of all of the Katy books, and, although this book is not quite as good as the others in the trio, it is still wholesome, descriptive, and, well--it has a touch of romance mixed in. In "What Katy Did Next," Katy is invited to go to Europe for a year with her friends Mrs. Ashe and Amy. Katy promptly decides to go, packs her bags, and departs on a vessel bound for England. She stays in Europe for six months, sees the places she has dreamed about, and, as aforesaid, has a romantic scene just at the end. This is a sweet and satisfying read, especially for girls 10-14.

Very good book but sequel "Clover", is not readily available

Since these books are by a classical author, one would expect all titles in the "Katy" series to be available.
