Her warm understanding of human nature and a love of the countryside are apparent in her stories. Anne of Green Gables is the story of a mischievous girl--an orphan with fiery red hair, a quick temper, and a vivid imagination.

The longer Anne stays with them, the less they can remember life without her. For grades 5-8 and older readers.
