I did not expect to like this book. It is not my typical type of read. I only picked it up because it is on Amazon's 100 Children's Books to Read in a Lifetime. However, there is a reason that I read off of lists. I find amazing books that I would not have otherwise picked up. Anne of Green Gables is such a book.

Anne is such an amazing character. She has spunk from the first time that you see her. She has enough mischief about her to keep you interested, but not enough that you disengage from her entirely. The most interesting relationship is between Anne and her guardians, specifically Marilla. Watching Marilla fall in love with Anne is an amazing experience.

Young or old, if you have not checked out this book yet then I recommend that you do. I bet you won't help but falling in love with Anne as well.
