School Library Journal Review

Gr 2-4-Third-grader Katie Kazoo has an unusual ability. After hastily wishing on a shooting star that she could be someone else, a magic wind appears at random, which unexpectedly transports Katie into someone else's body on a moment's notice. In Drat! You Copycat!, Becky, the new girl, tries to fit in by copying Suzanne, Katie's best friend. Instead of making friends, Becky becomes known as the class copycat. When Katie suddenly finds herself in Becky's shoes, will Katie be able to help her or does even more trouble arise for both Katie and the new girl? In Doggone It!, Katie's teacher, Mrs. Derkman, moves in next door to Katie. On top of being incredibly strict and often harsh in school, Katie discovers that Mrs. Derkman is not fond of dogs. When the magic wind turns Katie into her own dog, things start to look "ruff" in the neighborhood. Actress Anne Bobby's narration is fluid and engaging, and Katie's fans will be entertained by this wonderful audiobook.
