Orphan Anne Shirley has always relied on her imagination to help her. Now she is being sent to Avonlea to live with the Cuthberts. Where she slowly wins their hearts. With new friends and her imagination to liven things up there is no telling where Anne will go!
Stunning descriptions of nature and extraordinary picture of life before the “great” wars. Surprisingly prescient and relevant. Glad to have read it as an adult as I think I may have only perceived it as moralising when I was a kid.
My mother was a teenager when she gave birth to me. She read this book while she was pregnant and, when I was born, she named me after the protagonist. Anne with an "E". I first read this book when I was nine years old, sitting in a car during a rainstorm. I started in the morning and finished just as it was getting dark and my mother called me inside. I've read it many times since, along with the entire series. It gave me a safe world to live in. I love them all.
I love it more every read through
