Anne of Avonlea by L.M. Montgomery

This book isn't nearly as good as Anne of Green Gables.  It was nice to read more of Anne's story, though.  Anne has graduated from her teacher training and has been assigned to be the teacher at the Avonlea school.   She teaches there for two years in this book.  She and Marilla end up with two orphans to take care of at Green Gables.  She makes new friends, and we hear about some of her old ones.  As usual, Anne gets into a few funny situations.

The Anne books are wonderfully appropriate for all ages and don't have anything questionable.

If you enjoyed the first book and want to know what happens next, this book is worth the time (although you'll still want to know what happens next after you've finished).  Standing alone, though, it isn't worth it.
