Nation
Katy goes to Europe and is so fortunate as to enjoy the novelties and beauties which she sees, with ideal enthusiasm. Somehow, despite the familiarity of the ground, the story does not lack interest and freshness. The book is bright, sensible, and entertaining.”
Churchman
Written in Miss Coolidge’s usual bright style…the characters are well drawn and the tone as high as its predecessors.”
Literary World
Susan Coolidge’s books need no commending; they are as tempting as they are sweet and pure; she knows how to make attractive everything she touches; and good literature, good English, does not suffer at her hands, while the refinement of tone and moral fiber are all that could be desired.”
Book News
The freshness of spirit, charm of style, warm sympathy with and large knowledge of childhood, which have characterized all Susan Coolidge’s stories for young readers reappear in [What Katy Did Next].”
From the Publisher
As soon as I started to read it, I was hooked—Guardian
I fell head over heels in love with Katy
One of my all-time favourite books . . . It's a wonderful book, very easy to read, even though it was published in the 19th century. It's a very lively funny story
Katy speaks with a charm and directness that remains as fresh as when it was written
