Anne Shirley is a lively, chattering, red-headed orphan girl with an impassioned imagination and a very careless streak. At first disappointed that she wasn't a boy, The Cuthberts decide to take in this "feather-brained" eleven-year-old and raise her as their own, where her antics keep landing her into trouble..

Anne of Green Gables is a picturesque and heart-warming story, written in such a way that incites nostalgic sentimentality.

This book succeeded in making me both laugh and cry! A whimsical romantic heroine story that whilst it seems to be a children's novel will appeal just as much to adults, if not more!
