Anne of Green Gables - L. M. Montgomery

"The books I read most as a child were Lucy Maud Montgomery." -Madeleine L'Engle
A classic for all ages, this official, unabridged edition of Anne of Green Gables features the unforgettable character of Anne Shirley and special memories,
exclusively from L.M. Montgomery's granddaughter.
Redheaded orphan Anne Shirley longs for a real home,
somewhere she can truly belong. When she first arrives at the Green Gables
house on Prince Edward Island, it's everything she ever imagined. But to stay,
she'll first have to convince Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert to adopt her. And
that means controlling her temper (even when Gilbert Blythe calls her
"Carrots"), staying out of trouble (and away from hair dye), and not
getting too carried away with her daydreams (though she would make the perfect
Lady of Shallot floating down the river). Anne might not always get it quite
right, but she does keep things interesting...
Through Anne's eyes, the ordinary world becomes magical and
every day is an adventure. She inspires the dreamer in all of us, never
hesitates to say the things we wish we could get away with, and makes us cherish
every kindred spirit we meet. It's no surprise Anne is loved around the world
by generations of readers.
