Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew want to adopt an orphan, to help on the farm at Green Gables. They ask for a boy, but they get Anne, who has red hair and freckles, and who talks and talks and talks. They didn't want a girl, but how can they send a child back, like an unwanted parcel? So Anne stays, and begins a new life in the sleepy, quiet village of Avonlea in Canada.

"Reread this book is so fluffy- it was perfect for me as a young teen, but now that I am grown I found it too full of ... fluff. I can remember getting bored with the books about Anne when she was grown, I am excited to reread the series and discover what I think of them now! " — Mellissa (4 out of 5 stars)
