Tentang eBook ini

BY A REMARKABLE CANADIAN WRITER. NOW A NETFLIX SERIES.

'Anne Shirley is, for me, one of the great characters of literature' LAUREN CHILD

'The grandmother of the YA/adult crossover novel' JEAN HANNAH EDELSTEIN, GUARDIAN

'The dearest, most moving and delightful child since the immortal Alice' MARK TWAIN

The seventh book in the Anne Shirley series.

'There was a little unfailing spring, always icy cold and crystal pure, in a certain birch-screened hollow of Rainbow Valley in the lower corner near the marsh. Not a great many people knew of its existence. The manse and Ingleside children knew, of course . . . '

When the new minister, Reverend John Meredith, arrives at the manse, the village is scandalised by his children's behaviour. He is the best preacher they've ever had, but since his wife died the youngsters have run wild. Anne recognises their kindness, though, and before long the four young Merediths are firm friends with her own six children at Ingleside - and up to all sorts of schemes. They meet at a private hideout - a hollow they call Rainbow Valley - and their adventures range from boisterous escapades to saving the life of a young orphan.
