Description

The adventures of high-spirited Anne, which have inspired multiple TV and movie adaptations, is now available in an unabridged hardcover edition that’s a perfect gift for today’s young readers.

When Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert ask the orphanage for a boy to help on the farm, they are surprised to receive Anne—a talkative, dreamy, red-haired, freckle-faced girl. Despite Anne’s imaginative antics, her presence fills the small town of Avonlea with joy and laughter.

Filled with evocative descriptions of Prince Edward Island, this beloved classic is now available in a collectible hardcover edition, complete with black-and-white illustrations that bring the story to life.

About the authors

Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton (now New London), Prince Edward Island, in 1874. After the death of her mother in 1876, Montgomery was raised by her maternal grandparents in the nearby community of Cavendish. She received a teaching certificate in 1894, and studied literature at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1895. After a brief career as a teacher at various island schools, she moved back to Cavendish in 1898. In 1911, she married the Reverend Ewan Macdonald and moved to Leaskdale, Ontario, where Macdonald was minister in the Presbyterian Church. A prolific writer, she published a number of short stories, poems, and novels, but is best known for Anne of Green Gables and its sequels: Anne of Avonlea, Anne of the Island, Anne of Windy Poplars, Anne's House of Dreams, Anne of Ingleside, Rainbow Valley, and Rilla Of Ingleside. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried in her beloved Cavendish, Prince Edward Island.
