Summary
Anne of Green Gables tells the heartwarming story of Anne Shirley, an imaginative and spirited red-haired orphan mistakenly sent to live with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, a brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help on their farm in the quiet village of Avonlea, Prince Edward Island.
Despite the mix-up, Anne quickly charms her way into their lives and the hearts of the community. With her vivid imagination, dramatic flair, and stubborn streak, Anne navigates the trials of growing up—friendships, school rivalries, mistakes, and triumphs—while learning the values of love, responsibility, and belonging.
Her journey is as much about finding a home as it is about shaping her identity.
