Rating: Summary: A must read for every young girl. Review: I went back to read this childhood favorite and I was just as moved and enraptured as when I read it the first time. I enjoyed every word and laughed and cried all over again. Anne is inspirational with her enviable spirit and wisdom beyond her years. A must read for every young girl. And a "must read again" for anyone searching to recapture the wide-eyed wonder and optimism of their youth.
Rating: Summary: A Very special book about a very special girl... Review: For me, the main theme of this book is that love and acceptance can overcome quite a lot of years of neglect and other troubles, and that you learn the most from loving, even if it's love for a strange red haired orphan... It also teaches about the power of imagination - both for good (Anne making up friens when she didn't have any) and bad (the Haunted wood...). A must read for any book lover...
Rating: Summary: Much better than I expected! Review: At first I'd thought this book was another of those fancy-schmancy, dragging novels, but I found myself thoroughly enjoying reading about Anne Shirley of Green Gables. It is about how a young orphan girl finds a home at Green Gables in Avonlea, Prince Edward Island. Each chapter is like a short story. They are funny when Anne is younger, like the episode when she dyed her hair green :), but as she grows older they start to deal more with her education, and, near the end of the book, depressing subjects like death and of the possible loss of Anne losing her beloved home, Green Gables. The characters are written about in a way that you can easily become familiar with them. I highly recommend this book.
Rating: Summary: For all ages Review: Anne is an eleven-year old girl that gets sent to Green Gables. She was spose to be a boy when her adopted parents adoption agentcy had messed up. Anne surrives the anger and sadness from all the things that were said about her. She in all her life she worked hard in school. She had met a friend Diana Berry. They have a wonderful friend ship. Now you will have to find out what this book is really like.
Rating: Summary: House of Dreams Review: I read an Anne of Green Gables many, many years ago and immediatly fell in love. At once, I went out and bought the entire series, loving each book more than the one before. This is a line of books I would highly recommend to anyone, of any age. It is truly my favorite set of books. No matter how many times I have read it...and my first copy had fallen apart years ago...I laugh and cry just as hard as I did the first time. Anne of Green Gables 2, or Anne's House of Dreams, is a wonderful story of a couple just starting out in marriage. Moving from their friendly town of Avonlea, they started out anew, in a little cottage by the seashore. Gilbert, Anne's husband, is a young doctor, beginning his practice. They make many new friends, each more interesting than the last. There is even a mystery to unravel in their midst! Romance galore, love, friendship and dreams unfold before our eyes. Even when we read of their tragedies, we hurt along with them, feeling their pain. That is how well this book is written. Read it, enjoy it and buy the whole set. You will never regret it!
Rating: Summary: A good book Review: Ann always gets herself into trouble, then gets herself out of it. She's funny and she uses lots of big words. I would like to be her friend. There is a sad part near the end that helps Ann grow up. I would recommend this book to my best friend.
Rating: Summary: A Book You Will Remember All Of Your Life Review: I am a male and over fifty years old. I was introduced to Anne by the excellent Canadian film production "Anne of Green Gables" and shortly thereafter began reading L M Montgomery's books. Mark Twain,along with thousands of other readers, was struck by Anne and her story. In my lifetime I've read thousands of books-- Anne of Green Gables is one of the very best. It is perceptive, endearing, humourous, heartbreaking, and real. It's being recommended for children 9 - 12 is ridiculous, most readers of any age will love and treasure this book.
Rating: Summary: a childhood favorite Review: This book is a real charmer. The rest of the series is nice, and you learn what happens to Anne and the rest of them, but none of them reach the heights of this lovely tale about the orphan who won over so many hearts. Buy it for a young girl...I know I must have read it 10 times, and I still have a tattered copy at my parents' house.
Rating: Summary: a delightful classic Review: "Anne of Green Gables" radiates charm, humor, and imagination. A beautiful maritime setting, characters at once spicy and lovable, and a blend of humor, vigor, and romance. The adventures of this imaginative girl, her "kindred spirits", and her transforming effect on a small farming settlement in Prince Edward Island will enchant young persons and adults.
Rating: Summary: Best Book in the World Review: A heartwarming story of friendship, love, and what makes a family a family. You can't lose when you read about orphan Anne (so spelled because Ann without an "e" is too simple) and her adventures at Green Gables!
