Does Katie Have a Song? Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story, for ages 6-10
Does Katie Have a Song?
Last summer,a Katie & Kimble reader named Marissa posted some
questions and comments here on the Katie & Kimble Blog. She
really got me thinking, too! For example, Marissa and I have discussed Kimble’s song, Mr. Russell’s song, and even Twinkle’s song (sort of). So, Marissa asked me if Katie had a song.
Well, there is a song that I think of when I think of Katie. It’s not
really “Katie’s Song.” But for people who have read Katie & Kimble:
A Ghost Story, I think you’ll know why I think of Katie when I hear this song.
The song is called “Down by the Old Mill Stream.” It was written in
1910, and so it was popular when Kimble was a child. There is a line in
the song that goes like this:
(not the river but the stream)…
If you have read the first Katie & Kimble book (Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story), I think you can see Kimble’s sense of humor in this song (and you know which chapter I’m talking about!)
It’s sort of an “inside joke.” That means that only Katie & Kimble
readers will know what the joke means! I thought that was kind of funny!
So, thanks, Marissa! What do you think of “Katie’s Song”? I found a
free sample of the part I wanted you to hear over on iTunes. Listen to
it here!
