Anne of Avonlea book summary
At sixteen, Anne Shirley begins teaching at the Avonlea school while she and Marilla take in the orphaned twins, well-behaved Dora and mischievous Davy. With Diana, Gilbert and their friends she founds the Avonlea Village Improvement Society, whose well-meant projects sometimes go comically wrong. She clashes with, then befriends, Mr. Harrison, her short-tempered new neighbour with a rude parrot, grows close to pupils such as the imaginative Paul Irving, and finds a kindred spirit in Miss Lavendar Lewis of the little stone house. Lucy Maud Montgomery’s 1909 sequel to Anne of Green Gables is a warm story of growing up on Prince Edward Island, full of humour, friendship, romance and the beauty of the countryside.
