Book Synopsis



A beautiful gift-book retelling of Lucy Maud Montgomery's heart-warming classic, adapted for early readers.


Join Anne with an 'e' as she moves to Green Gables in this timeless adventure that has enchanted generations of children.


When a spirited and imaginative 11-year-old orphan named Anne moves to Avonlea, she can't wait to see the home she's always dreamed of. And it's perfect! Green Gables is a beautiful farmhouse, set among the summer flowers of Prince Edward Island.


But Anne quickly realizes her dream is too good to be true. There has been a terrible mistake and her new family--gentle Matthew and his stern sister Marilla--were expecting someone quite different. With her cheer, her imagination, and even her mischievousness, Anne is a welcome breath of fresh air . . . but will she succeed in enchanting Matthew and Marilla? One thing's for sure, there is never a dull moment when Anne is around.


Featuring high-end finishes, including a foil-inlaid cloth binding, textured jacket, and ribbon bookmark, Anne of Green Gables is a timeless gift book for every child to enjoy and treasure.

Review Quotes




Gr 2-5-An adaptation of this timeless tale about generosity, friendship, and forgiveness is the latest addition to this collection of classics. Every generation should have the chance to read this heartwarming story of how a young girl's spirit and -determination charmed an entire village. Readers will -relate to Anne's anxiety when she's afraid she has no place to go, and challenges making friends and standing up to teasing at school will also feel quite familiar. It's hard to resist loving Anne, her mishaps, and her tender heart. Enchanting illustrations help readers envision the village of Avonlea and experience Anne's exploits right along her. Anne's stubbornness and grit model strategies for standing up for yourself, and her sensitivities help readers remember they are not alone in their struggles. With plentiful extension opportunities, Anne of Green Gables is an excellent tool for teaching the concepts of setting, character development, and plot. VERDICT Absolutely add this to your library shelves and recommend it at every opportunity. If you already have a copy, it's probably time to replace it with a fresh new edition.--School Library Journal

About the Author



Katherine Woodfine (Author)
Katherine Woodfine has been reading and writing for as long as she can remember. She still has the first 'book' she ever wrote, aged 6 - an action-packed mystery entitled 'The Robbers Who Stole the Crown Jewels'. Fittingly, her first published book, the Sunday Times bestseller The Clockwork Sparrow (2015) was also a mystery featuring a daring jewel theft.

Following on from her debut, Katherine has written seven more historical mysteries in the Sinclair's Mysteries and Taylor & Rose Secret Agents series, following a pair of intrepid Edwardian young lady detectives. She is also the author of a number of books for younger readers, including Sophie Takes to the Sky illustrated by Briony May Smith, Elisabeth and the Box of Colours illustrated by Rebecca Cobb, and A Dancer's Dream illustrated by Lizzy Stewart.

She has contributed to a number of short story anthologies including Winter Magic and Make More Noise. In 2017 she was chosen as one of Hay Festival's Aarhus 39 - a selection of the best children's and young adult writers from all over Europe aged 40 and under.

Katherine lives in Lancashire, close to an old castle, with her family and two black cats.

Isabelle Follath (Illustrator)
Isabelle Follath is a freelance illustrator living in Zurich, Switzerland with her husband and daughter, where she creates pictures for books and many other things. She loves drawing all sorts of characters, mixing colours and drinking an alarming amount of coffee. When she is not illustrating you can find her searching for the perfect vintage nib or trying rearrange her watercolours of which she has far too many.
