Anne of Green Gables (Wordsworth Collector's Editions)

Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables Through her early hardships, eleven-year-old orphan Anne Shirley has resolutely clung to an upbeat spirit and a highly imaginative imagination. She suddenly appears in the life of elderly siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a girl rather than the son they had requested. Thus starts a tale of transformation for all three; in fact, Anne has an impact on every aspect of the small town of Avonlea. We watch her mature from a young girl to a young woman of sixteen while she makes errors and occasionally learns from them.
