Anne of Avonlea - audiobook

Anne of Avonlea

"With a brisk pace and pleasant, natural style, O'Malley's voice makes
a good match for Anne's sweet-natured temperament and higher energy.O'Malley
gives the many narrative passages, and Anne's parts, a lively quality, while setting
an overall tone of nostalgia to match the story."AudioFile
"An exceptional audio. Highly recommended."Reviewer's Bookwatch

At sixteen, Anne Shirley is grown up, almost. Her gray eyes shine like evening stars,
but her red hair is still as peppery as her temper. In the years since she arrived at
Green Gables as a freckle-faced orphan, she has earned the love of the people of
Avonlea and a reputation for getting into scrapes. But when Anne begins her job as
the new schoolteacher, the real test of her character begins.

Along with teaching the three Rs, she is learning how complicated life can be when
she meddles in someone else's romance, finds two new orphans at Green Gables,
and wonders about the strange behavior of the very handsome Gilbert Blythe. As Anne
enters womanhood, her adventures touch the heart and the funny bone.Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874–1942) was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, Canada. She attended Prince Wales College in Charlottestown and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She returned to live with her grandmother in Cavendish, Prince Edward Island, which became the basis for her "Anne" books. Anne of Green Gables (1908) brought her overnight success.

Anne of Avonlea - audiobook

Anne of Avonlea

Anne of Avonlea is the second in L.M. Montgomery's series of books about Anne Shirley. As her fans know, she is the flame-haired, vivacious and imaginative orphan who came to live with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert in their home at Green Gables. Anne is now sixteen and a half and is about to start teaching at the very same school she herself attended.

Those of you who know Anne will realise that she has always been delightfully accident prone, falling into scrapes because of her plans and adventures. In Anne of Avonlea, despite her new responsibilities, she still can be harem scarem and her life still does not always go according to plan.
