Anne (with an E, as she'll remind you) is one of literature's most beloved heroines. Anne of Green Gables is the first book in a series of delightful stories for children, teens, and adults.
In Anne of Green Gables, the orphan girl, Anne Shirley, comes to live with Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert by mistake. Even though the aging bachelor brother and sister pair wanted a boy to help with their farm, Anne charms her way into their hearts (and the reader's) with each of her imaginative observations and clever antics.
