This is a wonderful book. I don't know how I missed reading it when I was young, but it is still great even when you are older! It is on the Big Read, which is how I came to be reading it for this review.
It tells the story of Anne (with an e) who is an 11-year-old orphan in Nova Scotia. She is mistakenly taken to a family who wanted to adopt a boy. She quickly wins the hearts of brother and sister Matthew and Marilla who take her into their home. The book tells the story of this imaginative girl and how she grows up to be a woman in their home of Green Gables.
It is a very simple story, but Anne's personality and misadventures are very winning. The writing is great and will grab your attention. It is wonderfully clean and appropriate for all ages. It is definitely worth your time!
