Anne of Avonlea For over half a century Anne Shirley, the charmingly unpredictable heroine of Anne of Green Gables, has captured the hearts -- and imaginations -- of millions. In this three-hour abridgment of the second book in L.M. Montgomery's unforgettable saga, Anne's story continues... in a tale that will delight children and grown-ups alike. "When Anne reached the school that first morning, she was confronted by prim rows of shining morning faces and bright, inquisitive eyes. She hung up her hat and faced her pupils, hoping that she did not look as frightened and foolish as she felt and that they would not perceive how she was trembling." It seemed only yesterday that the skinny, freckled redhead had first come to Prince Edward Island. Now here was Anne, a pretty sixteen, teaching at the Avonlea school and all grown up. Well, not quite grown up. In fact, Anne was not very different from her restless young pupils -- mischievous and high-spirited as ever. With this special reading by Megan Follows, L.M. Montgomery's timeless classic will entertain you and your family again and again!
