Anne of Green Gables

By: Lucy Maud Montgomery

Narrated by: Arika Escalona

When Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert of Green Gables, Prince Edward Island, send for a boy orphan to help them out at the farm, they are in no way prepared for the error that will change their lives. The mistake takes the shape of Anne Shirley, a redheaded 11-year-old girl who can talk anyone under the table. Fortunately, her sunny nature and quirky imagination quickly win over her reluctant foster parents. Anne's feisty spirit soon draws many friends - and much trouble - her way.

Montgomery wrote the novel in the twilight of the day, sitting at her window and overlooking the fields of Cavendish. Since publication, Anne of Green Gables has sold more than 50 million copies.

My all-time favorite book!

I've been reading this book since I was a child, and have read it (or now listened to it) once every few years.

Very Enjoyable!

I love the complete series of Anne books. The movies with Megan Follows were a delight. This narration is well done and very easy to listen to - especially as background audio for data entry work! The variation in the narrator's voice for different characters was entertaining yet realistic. It was easy to "envision" the events as I remember them in the movie series. I definitely would recommend this for anyone who loves the Anne of Green Gables series!

Classic Anne

Would you consider the audio edition of Anne of Green Gables to be better than the print version?

As a grad student, I don't have much time to dedicate to pleasure reading. There's no better way to fall asleep than by listening to audio books of familiar stories! This rendition of Anne of Green Gables is a wonderful addition to my audio book collection.

great book

loved this book. the narrative was great and I will be downloading the whole series

Always a favorite!

Anne of Green Gables has always been a favorite story of mine since childhood. I revisit it often. Something about this book always makes me feel comforted.

The narrator is not my favorite, and perhaps that is because I have heard a different narrator do a marvelous job. But even so, it did not take much away from the listening experience.
