Synopsis

The Complete Katy Carr Series is a rich tapestry of childhood adventures, familial bonds, and poignant life lessons, chronicling the journey of Katy Carr, a spirited girl with aspirations of becoming a writer. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, Susan Coolidge employs a charming, accessible style that engages readers with its vivid descriptions and relatable characters. The series explores themes of friendship, resilience, and the transition from childhood to adulthood, embodying the bildungsroman tradition while also reflecting the social mores and challenges of the era, particularly with respect to young women's roles in society. Susan Coolidge, the pen name of Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, drew upon her own experiences and observations of childhood and family life to create the beloved character of Katy. The eldest of four sisters, Woolsey faced the loss of her mother at a young age, which shaped her understanding of personal loss and resilience. Throughout her life, she remained dedicated to the notions of imagination, friendship, and the importance of pursuing one's dreams, factors that deeply influenced the rich characterizations and adventures portrayed in Katy's narratives. For readers seeking a charming and thoughtful exploration of youth and growth, The Complete Katy Carr Series is an essential addition to any literary collection. Its timeless appeal makes it suitable for both young readers and adult fans of classic literature, offering insights into the struggles and triumphs of adolescence while inspiring a sense of nostalgia for the simplicity and wonder of childhood.

    A detailed chronicle of the career of the late 1800s trailblazing investigative reporter, Nellie Bly. A letter to the Editor of The Pittsburgh Dispatch turned into a position of journalist with the paper. She tackled tough societal issues, unheard of from woman in those days. However, the businesses she exposed threatened to pull advertising, so she was moved to cover topics deemed more appropriate for a woman. She ultimately became a freelance journalist and later moved to New York and worked as an investigative reporter for New York World, often going undercover, or as it was called then, being a "stunt reporter". She also reported on her 72-day trip around the world. The biography details her marriage to a business tycoon, her time as President of the company and her ultimate return to journalism. Contextual side stories offer further perspective on key details, locations, and people referenced in Bly's story. Archival photographs, drawings, and paintings are chronologically arranged, adding visual context to her remarkable life and career, as well as the inclusion of further reading and website recommendations, maps, glossary, and index. Content developed for young readers, interest level grades 4-6 (reading level, grade 5).
