Rainbow Valley
by L. M. Montgomery
Anne Shirley is an adult, married her lover Gilbert and is now the mother of six naughty children. These boys and girls discover a special place of their own, but they never imagine what will happen when the strangest family moves into a nearby old mansion. The Meredith clan is two boys and two girls, has a ministerial father but no mother - and is a runaway girl named Mary Vance. Soon after, Meredith's children join Anna's children in their special hiding place to carry out their plans to rescue Mary from the orphanage, help the lonely maid find happiness, and keep the house out of the soup pan. In the sunny world of Rainbow Valley, adventure is always brewing.
