"This classic 1908 Canadian novel was written for all ages, but has become better known as a book for young adults, and shares space with Lucy Maud’s many other novels (considered a series) in every school library in Canada. If you are an adult, don’t let this put you off! The readers of 50 million copies sold can’t be wrong! The irrepressible Anne Shirley of the title is adopted by mistake by a couple of elderly siblings looking for a strong lad to help with chores on their farm on Prince Edward Island. They almost send her back. What transpires instead is life-changing for all of them! You’ll laugh out loud at the adventures of Anne Shirley and Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert. If you have ever travelled in Atlantic Canada you will recognize a portrait of rural life that has changed little over the decades since Canada’s most prolific and most popular author painted her charming stories. If you’ve never visited beautiful Prince Edward Island, go there! You won’t be able to avoid her!"
