A newcomer reshapes Avonlea

Anne Shirley arrives in Avonlea after a childhood marked by deprivation, bringing an optimistic outlook and an active imagination to the household of Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, who had expected to adopt a boy. The story traces Anne’s growth from eleven to sixteen, alongside the changes her presence brings to the siblings and their rural community. Her mistakes, independent judgments, and encounters with grief and loss make coming of age the book’s central thread, while family and love take shape through her relationships with the Cuthberts and the people around them.

Book overview

Anne of Green Gables has been one of the world's most charming coming-of-age stories for more than a century.

  • Best-selling Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery published the first book in her charming series in 1908, making it a literary favorite for more than a hundred years.
  • Published as a children's novel, the story of Anne Shirley, an orphan, was inspired by the author's childhood adventures on rural Prince Edward Island. It follows Anne's journey as she moves to a farm on the island to live with a middle-aged brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help them with farming chores. The story follows Anne as she makes a home and comes of age on the island.
  • The widely popular novel has sold more than 50 million copies and has been translated into more than twenty languages since its first publication.
  • Featuring colorful painted edges and a heat-burnished cover with foil stamping, this edition of Anne of Green Gables makes for a stylish addition to your bookshelf.
