Anne of Ingleside

Book excerpt: A classic for all ages, this official, unabridged edition of Anne of Inglesidefeatures the unforgettable character of Anne Shirley and special memories, exclusively from L.M. Montgomery's granddaughter. There's never a dull moment in the life of wonderful, whimsical Anne. The adoring mother of five lively children—with a baby on the way!—Anne's life is full to bursting. And that's before the overbearing Aunt Mary Maria arrives for a lengthy visit... Still, there's nowhere Annie would rather be than her own beloved Ingleside in the adoring arms of her husband, Gilbert. Life with her imaginative, adventurous children seems close to perfect until Anne begins to worry that her very busy doctor doesn't love her anymore. She may be a little older, but she's still the same irrepressible, irreplaceable Anne of Green Gables—and she's ready to make her darling husband fall in love with her all over again! Anne Shirley once said, "Dear old world, you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you." That sentiment is echoed by readers around the world who've fallen in love with this remarkable heroine.
