Anne Of Green Gables
It'a a simply scrumptious book in which delightfull surprises are tucked away, and it's completely overtaken by pure imagination. Anne is dear to my heart, and I only began to read her story a few days ago. I'm over half way through the first book already (And it's rather thick!) Lucy Maud Montgomery who wrote 'Anne of Green Gables' and the subsequent series based the story of Anne's childhood upon her own childhood growing up with her Grandmother. I am ever so glad that there are many books in the series, so I can learn of what becomes of precious little Anne. Furthermore, it is even more dear to my heart because it takes place in Canada. I have never been to any of the Maritimes, and Anne's story takes place on Prince Edward Island, but it does make me happy to think t hat she - while fictional - was a citizen of my country. Have any of you read it? If not, you should, but be warned, don't go read the Wikipedia article and miss the spoiler warning like I did! it wasn't too big of a spoil, but enough. Oh well, that's alright! I suspected something along those lines anyway! :D

The "Anne" books are favorites of mine as well. I have read them all several times and hope my daughters will one day also. Enjoy the series!

I've read the first several Anne books, and enjoyed them immensely. They get better as she grows older. I've read the first five, so Green Gables, Avonlea, Island, Windy Poplars, and House of Dreams. Keep reading Sheila!
