I just finished re-reading my all time favorite series, Anne of Green Gables. In my opinion these books should be considered a classic! They are entertaining, heartwarming, and clean (no sex, violence or foul language in these books!). The writing is superb! And all the characters unique and dynamic. There is no other book where the characters seem so real to me. And there are so many life lessons that you can learn from the experiences of the characters. I truly believe that some of the stories are probably from the author, Lucy Maud Montgomery's, own life and experiences. I dream of some day traveling to Prince Edward Island. Hopefully my daughters will love these stories as much as me and we can take a "girls trip" someday.
Does anyone else love these books?
And if you don't ever read the books, please watch the movies. They are excellent and perfect for a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Although, I will admit the 3rd one is a great movie, but does not follow the books one bit! So maybe you should just read the books :)
Aren't they adorable? And Gil is not too bad on the eyes either! :)
I would love to name one of my kids Gilbert, but my husband isn't to keen on that idea. I have no idea why! Is there anyone else who has considered naming a child after a favorite book character? Or anyone named after one?
