But what Katie soon learns is that wishes really do come true–and in the strangest ways . . . Oh, Baby! When Katie turns into her best friend Suzanne’s baby sister, Heather, things are bad enough. But when Katie, as Heather, speaks to Suzanne, Suzanne thinks that her baby sister is a genius! How will Katie ever explain to Suzanne that it wasn’t really Heather doing the talking, without spilling her big secret? Girls Don’t Have Cooties Katie’s best friend Jeremy and the other boys from Class 3A have decided that all girls have cooties. But when Katie finds herself in one of Jeremy’s shoes–really–she tries to reunite the boys and the girls. Will Katie’s plan work? Or will it just be one big mess?

— maddykorneychuk, 11/1/2011" Katie Kazoo tames the class bully in a most unusual way after his fear of the class hamster is exposed in a single embarrassing moment. Readers enjoying the humor and premise of this story will likely clamour for more of Kaite's adventures. "
— Bvlmc, 5/23/2011" I love the whole series, and it would take me a lot of time to rate all the books I've read off the series - so I've rated the very first book instead :D "
— person., 12/12/2010" This is the first book in the series. At first I was doubtful that it would be good. Then I thought it would be good to try it. And it was great. I read it in one day. I couldn't even put it down to eat my breakfast. That's the end of what I have to say about this book. "
— Maymuna, 12/9/2010" THIS BOOK IS SO AWESOME!!! I READ THIS IN 5TH GRADE. I FINISHED IT ONE DAY. I WAS FOCUSED NOT BOTHERE. I FELT LIKE I WAS KATIE! THEY EXPRESS THE FEELINGS SO WELL! EVERY GIRL SHOULD READ THIS ITS TO GIRLY FOR BOYS. "
— Audriana, 3/11/2010" I'm glad my sister got into these books so I could try reading them too. I think they are really interesting stories because of the magic wind and what it made Katie do and learn. "
— Maggie, 2/16/2010" This was a good starting chapter book. I like that Katie learns something from her switch. "
— Crystal, 7/13/2009" Now this was a really good book. It's about katie getting zapped into other people. literally. she turns into other people. "
— Lilly, 4/10/2009" Good read aloud. My first graders really got into it. Short chapters and only 10 chapters in the whole book. Would be perfect for a 2nd-3rd grader to read by themselves. "
— Rachel, 1/13/2009" Apparently another page turner for the seven-year-old audience. It incorporates some jokes which are so entertaining for Rebecca right now. "
— Maren, 1/8/2009" these are great cheer up books short funny and awesome but when i say short i mean i read 4 in an hour so great for pick me up or days when you have the blues "
