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

Anne Shirley has left Redmond College behind and is ready to start a new job and a new chapter of her life, far from Green Gables. But she's about to face a big challenge: the Pringles. Known as the royal family of Summerside, they quickly make it clear that Anne is not who they wanted as the principal of Summerside High School. But Anne isn't one to back down from a challenge.

Determined to make Summerside her home, Anne settles into the cozy tower room at Windy Poplars. There, she finds great allies in the widows Aunt Kate, Aunt Chatty, and their lively housekeeper, Rebecca Dew. As Anne uncovers Summerside's strangest secrets, winning over the prickly Pringles becomes just the first of her many triumphs.

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.
