Anne of Green Gables

Have you ever had the feeling that you weren’t wanted? As if you don’t belong and are a burden? You now understand how Anne of Green Gables felt. Sounds interesting? If so, keep reading because Anne’s story begins here.

The Cuthberts would like to adopt a boy. Matthew needed a strong, sturdy boy to help him with the farm chores. Instead, they are given a girl named Anne Shirley. The Cuthberts are unhappy. They think she will have to return. However, they decide to let her stay for a few days before making her go. Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and before long, no one could imagine Green Gables without her. Join Anne as she makes mistake after mistake, gets into scrape after scrape, but always fixes up after her fumbles.

I loved this book a lot because it wasn’t supposed to be anything spectacular. But it’s spectacular because it came straight from the author’s heart! I also like this book because it is relatable, and with each chapter, a new lesson or moral is revealed. For example, one day Anne lets her imagination run wild. Marilla Cuthbert teaches her a lesson the hard way.

This book is good for fourth graders all the way up to adult readers. I believe that both old and young readers can relate to the characters in Anne of Green Gables because they are realistic and have real-life adventures. While you will find it difficult to put the book down, the good news is that it is only the first in a series about Anne’s life.
