A fun and engaging way for young children to figure out concepts and solving problems on his or her own.Rookie Readers (Ages 5-7) have provided entertaining, high-quality introductions to reading for more than a generation. Each title features full-color, often hilarious illustrations and engaging stories that always involve a young child figuring out concepts or solving problems on his or her own. Katie is a youngest child whose brother and sister seem to blame her for everything, but sometimes it's good to know that Katie did it.
Poor Katie, whenever something goes wrong at home her older brother and sister say, "Katie Did it!" and Katie gets the blame. But at the end of the book Mom gets flowers and when she asks who they are from, Katie pipes up, "Katie did it!" So in the end, she triumphs over her older sibs. Good story, made better by the excellent illustrations for your young pre-schooler. I like all the Rookie Reader books. They are just a great way to get a little pre-schooler started on his or her reading career. And an early start is so important in today's world. Children need every advantage they can get, so if you're a parent or guardian of a precious little one, I highly recommend Rookie Reader books. The dividends they will pay in the long run will be priceless.

I was the youngest of 4 children in my family and this was one of my favorite books as a child. I got this book for my daughter whom incidentally I named Katie!!
Perfect for little brothers/sisters

This book does a good job of simply portraying the daily conflicts between brothers and sisters, dealing especially with the youngest sibling. Repetitive phrases will help any struggling reader and is good for a read-a-loud. Many will identify with Carmelita/Katie (Eng. version) as she gets blamed and will triumph with her at the end when she gets the better of her older siblings. I recommend this to families with young children.
