Now I'm starting to describe you my favourite books. Here is one of them:“Restless Katie” by Susan Coolidge.


I read it year ago. It was my New Year’s present. I found it under the Christmas tree. The genre of this book is autobiography.
Big dreamer Katie Carr has a good heart, and restless character. She bosses all her brothers and sisters, always inventing amazing games and fun, the sometimes troublesome to her aunt. And once with Katie disaster happens - and completely change her life ...
The story of the restless dreamer Katie - a bold, kind and honest girl - can not leave indifferent any of its reader. Check this, just starting to read it.

I like this book because Katie taught me not to give up, to believe in yourself. Also this book is one my favourite because the main character called Katie like me!
