When Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert decide to send word to an orphanage for a little boy to help around Green Gables, their lives are forever changed by an unexpected mistake--an 11-year-old girl named Anne Shirley. Through a series of lessons and adventures, the imaginative, spunky, redheaded orphan--who longs for a real family, friends, and a place to call home--soon captures the hearts of the Cuthberts and all those around her in the small town of Avonlea.
