Anne of Green Gables

About this book

Within the quiet countryside of "Avonlea," where life moves at a monotonous rhythm behind the white fences of "Green Gables" heights, a tale no one counted on begins. Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, the two siblings whose hair age had invaded, were expecting "help" to assist them with the farm's toils; a strong boy to fill their days' emptiness with work. But fate, in sweet mockery, sent them "Anne Shirley." Anne is no mere orphan girl with red braids and a freckled face, but a hurricane of restless imagination. With a tongue that never stops chattering and eyes that see in the ordinary brook "a mirror of beauty," Anne enters the two siblings' life to turn the scales of discipline upside down. Can an orphanage's mistake turn into the greatest gift life granted a house silence had nearly killed? In a style blending enchanting innocence and deep human drama, the novel takes us on a journey to explore the meaning of belonging. We will watch Anne forge friendships from nothing, fall into predicaments provoking laughter and tears together, and face the world's bullying with a heart that knows no surrender. It is an invitation to everyone who ever felt "different," and to every soul searching for a place to call "home." Get ready for a literary experience that redefines happiness from the perspective of a girl who never owned anything, yet made the whole world her imagination's property.
