Anne of Green Gables – L.M. Montgomery
When Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert of Green Gables, Prince Edward Island, send for a boy orphan to help them out at the farm, they are in no way prepared for the error that will change their lives. The mistake takes the shape of Anne Shirley, a redheaded 11-year-old girl who can talk anyone under the table. Fortunately, her sunny nature and quirky imagination quickly win over her reluctant foster parents. Anne's feisty spirit soon draws many friends--and much trouble--her way. Not a day goes by without some melodramatic new episode in the tragicomedy of her life. Early on, Anne declares her eternal antipathy for Gilbert Blythe, a classmate who commits the ultimate sin of mocking her hair color. Later, she accidentally dyes that same cursed hair green. Another time, in her haste to impress a new neighbor, she bakes a cake with liniment instead of vanilla. Lucy Maud Montgomery's series of books about Anne have remained classics since the early 20th century. Her portrayal of this feminine yet independent spirit has given generations of girls a strong female role model, while offering a taste of another, milder time in history.

I loved this book when I was younger. Haven't read it in a while!

What a clever meme! I will have to try it next week.

I LOVED Anne of Green Gables when I was little, but alas that has been so many years ago that I have vowed to re-read the books. At the rate I am going, however, that won't be until my retirement years.

Another one I should re-read.

I've not seen this meme before, but it is a good one! Only problem is I already have a meme for that day. What to do, what to do?

I was very devoted to all of L.M. Montgomery's books in my younger years. Her books are a lot of fun!

That's one book I have been wanting to read for a long time.

I will always love this book. It was one of the first books I read when I was younger. I still space out some time during the year to read through the Anne series again.

I also received a blog award today and I am passing it on to you. You can pick your award up here.
