Anne of Green Gables

I love Anne of Green Gables. I love all the books, characters, imagery, stories, ALL OF IT! I had a roommate in college who was identical to Anne (in character) and so I even got to live with Anne! So last week when I went to the library and found a new book entitled "The Prequel to Anne of Green Gables - Before Green Gables", I was apprehensively excited. Who knew if it was going to fly or flop?
Yet again, my kids had to fend for themselves this afternoon as I devoured the book. It combines all the clues from the other books about her pre-Green Gables life, and of course the author (Budge Wilson) takes liberties, but she does so very well. I loved reading about Anne and how her character forms...
I loved it! I highly recommend it!
Enjoy!
