When eleven-year-old orphan Anne Shirley is mistakenly sent to live on a farm with siblings Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, Anne finds herself in a real home for the first time in her life. Fiery and spirited, she certainly isn't the sturdy boy they had planned to adopt. Despite her mischief and affinity for finding trouble, the longer Anne stays at Green Gables, the harder it is for the Cuthberts to imagine life without her.
Exploring the time-honored themes of imagination versus reality, the pressures of social expectations, and the differences between true emotion and mere sentiment, this unique collector's edition presents L. M. Montgomery's beloved tale of friendship and family in a giftable new way.
