Product Description
Product Description
Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are in for a big surprise. They are waiting for an orphan boy to help with the work at Green Gables - but a skinny, red-haired girl turns up instead. Feisty and full of spirit, Anne Shirley charms her way into the Cuthberts' affection with her vivid imagination and constant chatter. It's not long before Anne finds herself in trouble, but soon it becomes impossible for the Cuthberts to imagine life without 'their' Anne - and for the people of Avonlea to recall what it was like before this wildly creative little girl whirled into town.

Format:Paperback
Definately worth getting this edition the cover is beautifully designed and really brings the book alive. A wonderful story and easy print to read. Would recommend to an Adult easy reader as well as a child.
Format:Paperback
I have enjoyed this book best out of all the Anne books. Anne is still a girl and is a big talker which she isn't when she is bigger. She says such amusing things sometimes. We also find it nice that Anne brings light to Mathew- the guardian of Anne.
One of my favourite parts is when Anne dyes her hair green. Her hair is actually red and it is a 'lifelong sorrow' to her. Her dreams are to make it black, a queenly black. She gets into al these scrapes and is always learning 'a little more'.
Another part which is good is when Marilla says: "But what good shall she do to us?" and Mathew replies, "We might be some good to her." which is quite true.
I strongly recommend this book to anyone of all ages.

I love this book. I didn`t buy it on the Kindle. I read it to my mum from the book. There is a girl called Anne Sherley. She does crazy things like getting her best friend drunk by accident, dying her hair green by accident and breaking her slate over her enemy`s head on purpose! It is a really good book an you should sooo read it.Yes, it is very old-fashioned and has very hard words but apart from THAT, the book is fab! 10/10 for me! Thanks, Anonymous x
