Description

Catherine, Called Birdy is a historical fiction diary that has captivated readers for generations. In 1290, a spirited and inquisitive young woman narrates her fourteenth year, a time of great change and challenge. Her father has other plans for her future, but Catherine is determined to make her own way. As she navigates the complexities of life, Catherine faces a series of would-be suitors, each with their own unique qualities. But it's the suitor from the north who proves to be the most formidable - and richest. Can Catherine outwit her father and the man who may be her future husband, or will she be forced to conform to the expectations of those around her? With wit, trickery, and luck, Catherine manages to send several suitors packing, but the battle against her father and the pig-like lord is far from over. This diary form tells a story of self-discovery, independence, and the power of being true to oneself.
