Anne Of The Island
by L. M. Montgomery
Anne Shirley awaits new adventures as she packs her bags, bids farewell to her childhood, and makes her way to Redmond College. With her old friend Prissa Grant waiting in the bustling city of Kingsport and her frivolous new friend Philippe Gordon at her side, Anne keeps her memories of rural Avonlea and discovers life full of surprises on her own terms... including a marriage proposal from the worst comrade imaginable, the sale of his first story, and the tragedy that taught him a painful lesson. But as Anne and her friends move into an old cabin, her tears turn into laughter, and an ornamental black cat steals her heart. Anne knows little that the handsome Gilbert Blythe also wants to win her heart. Suddenly, Anne must decide if she is ready for love...
