Description
Welcome, once again, to the charming byways of Avonlea and its people, as created by one of Canada's most beloved authors. In this volume of heartwarming tales, a Persian cat plays an amazing role in a marriage proposal, a young girl risks losing her mother in her quest to find her father, and a foolish lie threatens to make an unattached woman the town's laughingstock. These fifteen short stories together present a piquant and fascinating picture of life in the villages and country surrounding Avonlea.
LUCY MAUD MONTGOMERY (1874–1942) was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, Canada and raised by her maternal grandparents. She attended Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown, where she completed the two-year teaching certificate program in one year, and went on to study literature at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She returned to live with her grandmother on P.E.I., which became the basis for her “Anne” books. Anne of Green Gables (1908) brought her overnight success.
