No children's library is complete without this beautiful hardcover edition of the beloved classic Anne of Green Gables, featuring gorgeous illustrations by Sybil Tawse.

An eleven-year-old orphan, Anne Shirley, arrives at the enchanting Green Gables farm on Prince Edward Island and wins the hearts of everyone at Avonlea with her mischievous and warm spirit. This is a classic story so popular that it spawned eight sequels after its initial publication in 1908 and has sold millions of copies since.

Author Biography

LUCY MAUD MONTGOMERY (1874-1942) was born in the village of Clifton (now New London) on Prince Edward Island in Canada. She was brought up by her grandparents after her mother died when she was two. Later her father moved away to Saskatchewan, where he remarried, and when she spent some months in his new home she was not happy. 'I do not think', she wrote, 'that the majority of grownups have any real conception of the tortures sensitive children suffer over any marked difference between themselves and the other denizens of their small world.'

While working as a reporter for the Halifax Daily Echo, she wrote Anne of Green Gables in the evenings over a period of eighteen months and when it was rejected by four publishers she put it away for two years. Then she revised it and a Boston publisher accepted it at once. When it appeared in 1908 the book proved so popular that ever afterwards she felt constrained by the public's constant demand for more stories about Anne. She did write five sequels - as well as many other novels - and they made her rich, but none reached the classic status of the first.

In 1911 she married Ewan Macdonald. She had two sons; she enjoyed fame and was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1935. She died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried in Cavendish Cemetery, not far from her birthplace.
