I Loved This Book When I Was in Grade School

We had a very bad library in most of my grade school classes. Sets of books with biographies of famous Americans as children-- not very well written-- and very dull and dated nonfiction on science. However, the Katie John series relieved some of that tedium. Katie John, as she helps her parents try to remain in their old house by taking in boarders is a lively and likeable character who should still appeal to the grade school set.

After you read it, you'll be hungry for more!

I read this at the age of 9. I had read Honestly Katie John! and Katie John and combed the local libraries 'till I found this one. It is different from the others and unique, full of the adventures of a fun, adventurous girl next door. It's full of surprises! You will laugh out loud!
