Życie w Zielonych Szczytach, spokojnej farmie na wyspie Księcia Edwarda w Kanadzie, zmienia się na zawsze wraz z przybyciem rudowłosej gaduły o imieniu Ania. Ta pełna energii, bystra 11-letnia sierota dostrzega "możliwości wyobraźni" wszędzie, gdzie spojrzy, przekształcając życie Matthew i Marilli Cuthbert, swoich starszych opiekunów, dzięki swoim wesołym wybrykom i przygodom. Ania — pisana z "e", jak poważnie informuje nowych znajomych — buduje świat czarów wokół Zielonych Szczytów oraz okolicznych lasów, jezior i dolin. Dzięki wyobraźni rudowłosej dziewczynki naturalne piękno rustykalnego regionu zamienia się w krainę wróżek pełną nieskończonego romansu. Inspirujące gadanie Ani, jej życzliwość i radość życia zdobywają ciepłe grono przyjaciół, tak jak podbiły serca czytelników na całym świecie. Od momentu swojego debiutu w 1908 roku powieść prowadzi pokolenia dzieci do śmiechu i łez — ale przede wszystkim do śmiechu — razem z tą ukochaną bohaterką.
Żywiołowa Ania opuszcza ukochane Avonlea, aby studiować w Redmond College w urokliwej nadmorskiej miejscowości Kingsport. Wraz z przyjaciółkami, takimi jak Priscilla Grant i dowcipna Philippa Gordon, zamieszkuje w idyllicznym „Patty’s Place”, przytulnym domu, który staje się centrum jej życia studenckiego i przyjaźni. W trakcie swoich lat na uczelni Ania przeżywa emocjonujący czas dorastania, naznaczony intensywnymi studiami, radosnymi przygodami i głębokimi przyjaźniami. Zmaga się nie tylko z akademickimi wyzwaniami, ale także odkrywa swoją niezależność i zdobywa doświadczenia, które na zawsze ją ukształtują. Szczególnie istotne dla Ani są spotkania z różnymi formami miłości. Jej przyjaciel z dzieciństwa, Gilbert Blythe, wyznaje jej swoje uczucia, ale Ania początkowo waha się, mając romantyczne wyobrażenia o miłości. Po emocjonalnych zawirowaniach, nieporozumieniach i rozczarowaniach Ania w końcu odkrywa, co oznacza prawdziwa miłość, i otwiera swoje serce dla Gilberta.
Romantyczna i pełna wdzięku opowieść o szacunku i dobroci. O dziewczynie,
która postanowiła wyzwolić się z więzów tradycyjnej rodziny i przeżyć resztę
życia zgodnie z własnymi pragnieniami. Piękna historia o szalonej namiętności
i narodzinach prawdziwej miłości.

Powieść bada tematy odwagi, patriotyzmu oraz głębokiego wpływu wojny na rodziny, czyniąc ją poruszającą historią dojrzewania i istotnym wkładem w kanadyjską literaturę.
Nadeszła upragniona chwila w życiu Ani i Gilberta pobierają się! Młode małżeństwo wyrusza na mgliste wybrzeże Przystani Czterech Wiatrów, gdzie Gilbert ma objąć posadę lekarza. Na Anię zaś czekają nowi sąsiedzi i przyjaciele, nowe przygody i tajemnice.

Sara Stanley powraca do Carlisle, aby spędzić tam zimę. Aby ubarwić jakoś
przyjaciołom nadchodzące, zimowe dni, wpada na pomysł założenia lokalnego
pisemka. Nowe dzieło Sary błyskawicznie zdobywa uznanie znajomych i sąsiadów,
wzbudzając śmiech, łzy i prowokując mnóstwo przezabawnych zdarzeń. I tylko
czas mija nieubłaganie, przypominając Sarze, że nic nie trwa wiecznie - nawet
jej pobyt na Wyspie Księcia Edwarda i złocista droga młodości, którą do tej
pory kroczyła wraz z przyjaciółmi.

On Prince Edward Island, where Anne Shirley grew up in the sea-sprayed town of Avonlea, there was no shortage of wonderful stories. There was the case of Ludovic Speed, who wouldn't propose to the woman he had courted for fifteen years until Anne devised a plan to "speed" him up . . . if it didn't backfire and break his heart. But no one could blame mischievous Anne for the hilarious battle of the sexes that erupted when a man-hating woman and her cat got quarantined in the same house with a woman-hating bachelor and his dog. From sprawling Penhallow Grange, where a family waits nearly forever for two quarreling lovers to break their stubborn silence, to the tumbledown farm of Old Man Shaw, who awaits the retum of his beloved daughter, L. M. Montgomery has written twelve tales of secret hopes and hidden dreams, filled with enchantment and humor.
A népszerű Anne-sorozat legújabb, sorrendben negyedik kötete, Anne Shirley életének újabb állomására kalauzolja az olvasót. Hősnőnk elfoglalja élete első igazi állását: igazgatónő a summerside-i középiskolában, és felnőttként is mindent megtesz, hogy színt, izgalmat vigyen a városka életébe. Először a Pringle-klánnal kell megküzdenie, akik a városka igazi urai, és Anne helyett saját rokonukat akarták az igazgatói székben látni. Anne nem éppen népszerű a körükben, de vitézül állja a sarat. Ha a vakszerencse nem juttatja egy régi hajónapló birtokába, és ha a sors nem sodor az útjába egy kivételes színészi képességekkel megáldott kislányt, aligha sikerülne diadalmaskodnia. Így azonban hamarosan az egész város kedvencévé válik. Ekkor semmi akadálya többé, hogy nyélbe üssön néhány házasságot, felderítse boldogtalan tanártársa, Katherine Brooke életét, és kiszabadítsa a szomszéd házban élő, élénk képzelőerejű félárva kislányt zsémbes nagyanyja kezei közül. Három év elteltével Anne elégedetten térhet haza Avonlea-ba, hogy szeretett Gilbertjével esküvőjére készülhessen.

Pat of Silver Bush (1933) is a novel written by Lucy Maud Montgomery, noted for her Anne of Green Gables series. The protagonist, Patricia Gardiner (called Pat), hates change of any kind and loves her home, Silver Bush, more than anything else in the world. She is very devoted to her family: her father and mother, her brothers Joe and Sid, and her sisters Winnie and Rachel (who everyone in the family calls Cuddles). The book begins when Pat is 7 years old and ends when she is 18. Throughout the text, various members of Pat's family are lost from Silver Bush (Aunt Hazel to marriage, Joe to life as a sailor, and Winnie to marriage). Pat is sustained through these losses due to her enduring love for her home. She is "unlike other children" and has few close friends. She maintains a strong friendship with Hilary "Jingle" Gordon, and later befriends Elizabeth "Bets" Wilcox, who eventually dies of the flu. Like most of Montgomery's texts, Pat is a domestic tale. Unlike Anne Shirley or Emily Starr, the only other Montgomery heroines whose stories are told in multiple texts, Pat is not ambitious nor a writer.

A young April wind, as fresh and sweet as if it had been blowing over the fields of memory instead of through dingy streets, was purring in the tree-tops and whipping the loose tendrils of the ivy network which covered the front of the main building. It was a wind that sang of many things, but what it sang to each listener was only what was in that listener's heart. To the college students who had just been capped and diplomad by "Old Charlie," the grave president of Queenslea, in the presence of an admiring throng of parents and sisters, sweethearts and friends, it sang, perchance, of glad hope and shining success and high achievement. It sang of the dreams of youth that may never be quite fulfilled, but are well worth the dreaming for all that. God help the man who has never known such dreams-who, as he leaves his alma mater, is not already rich in aerial castles, the proprietor of many a spacious estate in Spain. He has missed his birthright.
