This was one of my all time favorite books of childhood. My mother read it aloud to me and I can still remember every bit of what it felt like to be in the world of Katie John.

I read this book again and again as a child. Katie John is so real that I felt I knew her. The story is simple but never dull, the illustrations (by Paul Frame) are just right, and the ending is satisfying and believable. There are three sequels.

Re-read. I love this book. Katie John c'est moi! Goofy, ham-handed, good-natured and well-meaning, she blunders her way through her 10th year in this sweetly nostalgic story. The supporting characters are a joy, too.
