4.0 out of 5 stars
An independent, strong-willed and clever girl.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Guide for Using Catherine, Called Birdy in the Classroom (Literature Unit Series) (Paperback)
My 9 year-old daughter, who is very well-read in the classics and in current literature loved this short book. She related to Catherine's independent attitude. My daughter wasn't looking for a deep plot in this short story and didn't find one, but she had so much fun reading it! I heard many delighted giggles and she still quotes some things Catherine said in the book. Children need to be able to do some "light" reading just as adults do, and this was perfect for my independent and clever girl!

I.R. Project,
By samantha carson "Samie" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Guide for Using Catherine, Called Birdy in the Classroom (Literature Unit Series) (Paperback)
The Novel "Catherine called Birdy," was a very inspirational story. The novel was a Bildungsroman literature that touched me as a person. When I was little I used to think that elegant people in fairy tales, or in stories were always so proper, and never fun. After I read this story, my perspective on this subject changed.
This Novel is about a young lady growing up. She discovers all of the rough paths she must cross during the journey through being a teenager. Not only does she have to go threw normal teenage stuff, but she also has to go threw mid evil times teenage stuff. Her father already has her up for marriage. She is only about 15, I think. Since she does not want to marry who her father chooses for her, she fights back. Every man her father chooses she doesn't like. In response, she does things to the bachelor that makes him forfit. After I read this novel, I relized that not all teenagers are perfect. Better yet, no teenager is perfect. I learned that fairytales arent always traditional, but in some cases, there may be a little twist.

An excellent book!,
By Bess Warely (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Guide for Using Catherine, Called Birdy in the Classroom (Literature Unit Series) (Paperback)
I enjoyed reading this book, and am anxious to use it in my classroom. I feel that the casual structure will encourage students to record their own observations and interpretations of life. There is great value in such a book that is both humorous and historical. It keeps kids turning pages.
