Summary

"Patty in the City" by Carolyn Wells is an adventure about a lively girl named Patty Fairfield, who goes from a quiet life in Vernondale to the busy world of New York City in the early 1900s, where her father wants to be closer to his fiancée. As Patty gets ready to leave her hometown behind, she feels both thrilled and a bit sad, especially because she's leaving her friends, but she's also excited to start fresh. Patty's journey is all about making new friends, figuring out who she is, and dealing with the ups and downs of city life, especially as she goes to school and starts new friendships. In the city, she meets new family members and kids her age, which leads to funny and touching moments that help her learn and grow.
