Anne of Avonlea

De: L.M. Montgomery

In this charming sequel to Anne of Green Gables, the unpredictable red-headed heroine returns for more wonderful adventures. When Anne Shirley first came to the beautiful Canadian town of Avonlea, she was a mischievous, talkative orphan who captured the hearts of everyone she met. Now, a few years later, Anne is a young woman with new dreams. She has become Avonlea's schoolteacher, and ends up, among other things, reuniting two long-lost lovers, raising two orphans, and falling in love for the first time.Public Domain (P)2011 Recorded Books

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Barbara Caruso gives a delightful reading of an old-fashioned, reassuring classic. For all ages." (Lawrence Eagle Tribune)

What took me so long

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I now know why this story and these characters have stood the test of time. What a timeless story of love, friendship, childhood, and of the incredible Anne Shirley.

What about Barbara Caruso’s performance did you like?

Wonderful, I can't wait to listen to her other books.

Classic with great narration

What did you like best about this story?

If you're listening to this one you're probably already a fan of Miss Montgomery---flights of fancy, humor, good people, good times.

Which character – as performed by Barbara Caruso – was your favorite?

Anne girl

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but you can also listen to it in small chunks successfully, which I find very important with audiobooks.

How could it be better?

Continuation of Anne’s story, showing her growth from the imaginative girl of Anne of Green Gables into a young woman navigating adulthood. The characters really make this book shine—Marilla’s softened edges, Paul Irving’s poetic soul, and of course, mischievous little Davy with his endless questions and hilarious antics. His blunt honesty and curiosity keep the story lighthearted, even as Anne faces more responsibilities.

"Old friends"

Just wonderful to follow Ann as she grows up. This is one of my favorite series of books from my childhood. It is just wonderful to get to listen to them. The recording is not new but it is still a great listen.

A kindred spirit in book form!

I adore these books and this reader!! I have read/listened to them many many times!
