Book Overview

Read the timeless classic about the fiery orphan Anne Shirley, now off to college, behind the hit Netflix series Anne with an E--now celebrating a hundred years of this children's favorite.

A new adventure awaits as Anne Shirley packs her bags, says goodbye to childhood, and heads off to Redmond College. With memories of her beloved Avonlea close to her heart, Anne dives into life in the bustling city of Kingsport. Surrounded by new and old friends, she embraces this exciting chapter.

From navigating tricky romances and celebrating her first successes as a writer, to facing the tough lessons of growing up and dealing with quirky cottages and their ornery black cats, Anne is determined to live life to the fullest--and on her own terms. But maybe she hasn't left all of her past behind, especially when the charming Gilbert Blythe seems to have plans for her heart. Now, older and a bit wiser, Anne must decide if she's ready for love and everything that comes with it.

This special Collector's Edition includes the original, unabridged text, a specially commissioned biography of L.M. Montgomery, and a map of Prince Edward Island.

Suddenly Anne must decide if she's ready for love...

About L. M. Montgomery

Lucy Maud Montgomery (November 30, 1874 - April 24, 1942) was a Canadian author best known for a series of novels beginning in 1908 with Anne of Green Gables. The book was an immediate success. The central character, Anne Shirley, an orphaned girl, made Montgomery famous in her lifetime and gave her an international following. The first novel was followed by a series of sequels with Anne as the central character. Montgomery went on to publish 20 novels as well as 530 short stories, 500 poems, and 30 essays. Most of the novels were set in Prince Edward Island, and locations within Canada's smallest province became a literary landmark and popular tourist site-namely Green Gables farm, the genesis of Prince Edward Island National Park. She was made an officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1935.
