Anne Of Green Gables
(L.M. Montgomery)
L..M Montgomery?s delightful novel initially appeared as a mini series in a magazine before she turned into a full length novel of a red headed orphan called Anne set in the background of the Canadian town Avonlea. Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert wanted to adopt a boy but ended up with Anne instead and life for them is never the same again. With Anne around there isn?t a single moment of monotony in their lives. Armed with an over active imagination and a knack for melodrama Anne dances her way to the hearts of the Avonlea folks. This book is a chronicle of the amusing episodes and the comical misadventures, which marked her growing up years. Anne with her spitfire temper and an equally loving disposition is an endearing child who charms everybody be it quiet old Matthew who is an ally forever, to the neighborhood gossip monger Mrs. Lynde. As she and her best friend Diana Barry whom she affectionately refers to as her bosom friend venture forth with their intriguing exploits Anne leaves an indelible impression in the minds of the people. She bewitches the most unlikeliest of people with her hilarious acts, right from a handsome boy called Gilbert Blythe on whose head she cracked her slate in a moment of anger to Diana?s cantankerous old Aunt Josephine who had the living day lights scared out of her when two little girls came and jumped on her in the middle of the night.
This book is an illustration of Anne?s journey as she transforms from an orphan child who is adopted by sheer chance to a confident young woman with dreams in her eyes. It is also an account of the lives of the people she magically touched. A must read for any child who has a love for old fashioned children?s books. This is the first book in the Anne series.
