Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery

I absolutely loved this book! It's a really calming one to read before bed or for some light reading. It's a sweet tale of a girl who's had a terrible orphan life and is FINALLY adopted and sent off to a gorgeous sea coast cottage in Avonlea only to find out that's it's all a mistake and the couple (Marilla and Mathew) meant to adopt a boy! She wins over their hearts with her livid imagination and knack for terrible mischief and trouble! 5 thumbs up!
~Abigail Thielman, age 13

Book Description: A lonely couple arrange to adopt a boy but instead end up with wide-eyed, quixotic "Anne of Green Gables". A tender and humorous 1934 coming-of-age tale.
