"I loved this book when I was young and enjoyed it just as much after reading it again as an adult. Anne is just such a great character... you can't help but like her and her quirky ways. I look forward to re-reading the rest of the books in the series as well. " — Margaret (5 out of 5 stars)

Lucy Maud Montgomery was one of the most famous Canadian writers of the twentieth century. She is best known for her books for young adults, particularly Anne of Green Gables and its six sequels chronicling the adventures of Anne Shirley. In her lifetime, Lucy published twenty novels and some five hundred short stories and poems. While caring for her grandmother, she wrote Anne of Green Gables. Several publishers rejected the book before it was finally accepted, and it became a bestseller. Eventually, it was made into a musical, a television movie, and a television series. Lucy later married a minister and moved to Ontario, where she died in 1942.
