This is the sweet story I enjoyed years ago. When Marilla and Matthew adopt a child from Nova Scotia, they think they are getting a boy to help on their Prince Edward Island farm, but Matthew brings a girl home from the train station. Red-haired, eleven-year-old Ann-with-an-e ... Anne Shirley. Their decision to keep her favourably changes their lives ... and hers. This great story is full of adventures, mishaps, comedy, angst, friendships, love, and more.
