Anne, an eleven-year-old orphan, is sent by mistake to live with a lonely, middle-aged brother and sister on a Prince Edward Island farm and proceeds to make an indelible impression on everyone around her.
I've read this book once before, but my guardians at the time permitted me not to read any more books from the series, because they found it inappropriate—they didn't care for imagination or people who'd gone through hardships having happy endings or pushing through regardless of them, as such was unrealistic thinking and not to be had. I envied girls in school who read the books and talked about them so freely, so when I noticed my grandmother has the set, I had to read them.
I didn't pick up a book until recently, however; life was busy and all that jazz.~
The only issue I've with this book is the lack of commas after transitional phrases and between subordinate clauses, for without them, reading was a bit difficult. I also didn't like how "that" was used so often, but aside from those two things, I loved it. 3
Rare was the fluff-stuffing, something I too often read in books. I dislike redundancy in books and when precious space, ink, time and words are wasted for it.
