For Anne and Gilbert Blythe, life in a small village is never dull because of all the entertaining gossip, and what strange and funny tales they hear: about the mischievous twins whose dearest wish comes true when they meet up with a bored and haunted millionaire; or clever Penelope Craig, who considers herself an expert on children -- until she adopts a boy of her own; or Timothy Randebush, a man so eager to keep his brother out of the clutches of a dangerous woman that he spirits her away -- only to fall prey to her charms himself. Filled with unexpected surprises, laughter, and tears, here are fourteen of the Blythes' favorite tales.
Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) was a Canadian author best known for her Anne of Green Gables series, originally published in 1908. This series was met with immediate critical and popular acclaim, translated in over 36 languages and selling more than 50 million copies. L. M. Montgomery’s early years spent on lush, green Prince Edward Island live on in the delightful adventures of the loveable, red-headed orphan, Anne Shirley, the stories Mark Twain called "the sweetest creation of child life yet written."
