What Katy Did at School by Susan Coolidge audiobook.

Genre: family

In What Katy Did at School, spirited Katy Carr is back - older, wiser, and still determined to meet life head-on. After the hard lessons that changed her outlook at home, Katy heads away to a girls' boarding school, where new friendships, unfamiliar rules, and the everyday trials of growing up test her patience and her pride. Surrounded by classmates with very different temperaments and backgrounds, Katy tries to balance her earnest desire to be good with her old habit of speaking too quickly and judging too sharply. As lessons and dorm life unfold, she finds herself drawn into small dramas, misunderstandings, and the quiet work of learning when to lead, when to listen, and when to apologize. With humor and warmth, Susan Coolidge follows Katy through the classroom and beyond, capturing the awkwardness and excitement of adolescence and the comfort of finding your people. At its heart, this is a story about character - how it is shaped by responsibility, friendship, and the daily choice to become kinder than you were yesterday.

What Katy Did by Susan Coolidge audiobook.

Genre: family

In a quiet New England town, high-spirited Katy Carr is certain she was born for something bigger than everyday life. The eldest of six siblings in a lively household, she throws herself into plans to improve herself and her family, even as her impatience and quick temper get her into trouble. Katy's world changes abruptly after a serious accident leaves her confined and facing a future she never imagined. As the days stretch on, the same energy that once fueled her grand ambitions must be turned toward a harder task: learning self-control, resilience, and kindness in the small moments. Guided by the steady wisdom of her cousin Helen and sustained by the love and chaos of her brothers and sisters, Katy begins to discover that growing up is not about becoming famous or exceptional, but about becoming dependable and generous when life is unfair. Warm, funny, and quietly moving, What Katy Did follows one girl's journey from restless dreaming to earned maturity, with family bonds, moral lessons, and everyday joys at the heart of the story.

The Strenuous Life by Theodore Roosevelt audiobook.

Genre: speeches

In The Strenuous Life, Theodore Roosevelt sets out a bracing vision of character, citizenship, and national purpose through a collection of speeches and essays from the late 1890s. Speaking as a public figure on the rise, Roosevelt argues that a healthy republic depends on citizens who embrace effort over ease, responsibility over comfort, and service over self-indulgence. He ranges from the duties of the individual to the obligations of a growing nation, urging physical vigor, moral courage, and practical competence in both private life and public affairs. Along the way, he wrestles with questions of leadership, education, work, and the meaning of patriotism, pressing listeners and readers to meet hardship with discipline rather than cynicism. The writing is direct, energetic, and unapologetically demanding, revealing the worldview behind Roosevelt's larger-than-life reputation. At its core, this audiobook offers a window into an era of American expansion and reform, and into a voice determined to shape the tone of civic life by challenging people to live with purpose, grit, and a sense of duty.
