Anne Of Avonlea

This is the second story in the ANNE OF GREEN GABLES series. Skinny little red-haired Anne has changed into a pretty sixteen year-old and is all grown-up, well, sort of grown-up. The story opens with Anne as a school teacher at Avonlea school. When Anne reached the school that first morning, she was confronted by prim rows of "shining morning faces". She had sat up until nearly midnight composing a speech which she had revised and improved painstakingly. It was a wonderful speech with fine ideas. And then, she couldn't remember it!
