Review Detail

When brother and sister Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert decide to adopt an orphan boy to help them out on the farm, neighbors think they're crazy.  When there's a mix-up and a girl arrives, tongues really wag.  When Matthew picks up red-haired, imaginative Anne Shirley at the train station, no one realizes how wonderful their lives will be.  I loved Anne of Green Gables.  From the puffed sleeves to gossipy Rachel Lynde, there is truly something there for everyone.  I especially liked being able to see Anne's growth into an older teen without losing her zeal for life and that great imagination of hers.
