When Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert send to an orphanage for a boy to help them at Green Gables, their farm in Canada, they are astonished when a talkative little girl steps off the train.
Anne, red-headed, pugnacious and incurably romantic, causes chaos at Green Gables and in the village. But her wit and good nature make her a girm favourite not only in the fictional community on Prince Edward Island, but also with generations of readers on either side of the Atlantic.
