Trivia
In one off-color "Tonight Show" monologue, Johnny Carson fictitiously referred to the titles in the series as "What Katy Did", "What Katy Did Next", and "Son of Katy". See more »Goofs
When Elsie awakens in the night and walks across the hall, having heard Katy fall, her hair is clearly in braids. When she enters Katy's room her hair is loose, although only a few seconds have passed. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

Megan Follows is why I picked out the movie in the first place. It was her Anne of Green Gables series that lead me to my favorite literary heroine, and this seems to be the same. The backdrop of the Canadian countryside is splendid as in the Anne films, assuming the Ontario countryside. I look forward to reading the books soon. I wish I had found these when I was a girl... a new favorite to discover. I know sometimes movies never do books justice, but at least they open a door to a new literary world... not sure how I missed Katy.
I do feel like they could have done a bit more with character development and historical context. I would think depending on the child and their circumstances, age 8 would be appropriate to share. It does have challenging, realistic themes, but I do believe it might lead to "teachable" moments and good conversation.
