| Summary |
"What Katy Did at School" by Susan Coolidge is a novel written during the late 19th century. This charming story continues the adventures of Katy Carr, a spirited and imaginative girl, as she embarks on a new chapter of her life by attending school with her sister Clover. The narrative explores themes of growth, friendship, and the challenges of adapting to a new environment. At the start of the novel, we find Katy reflecting on her newfound independence after recovering from illness, which allows her to take part in daily activities that were previously difficult for her. The chapter vividly describes the dynamic atmosphere of her family home and sets the stage for Katy and Clover’s upcoming journey to the boarding school known as "The Nunnery." The mix of excitement and trepidation as they prepare for their new experiences is palpable, and Katy's observations about the people and places around her reveal her adventurous spirit and desire to fit in. The opening portion encapsulates the balance of cheerfulness and uncertainty that often accompanies change, signaling the challenges and friendships that lie ahead for the sisters as they navigate their lives in a boarding school.
