Critics Review
“[Anne is] the dearest and most lovable child in fiction since the immortal Alice.”-Mark Twain
“Aficionados of the auburn-tressed waif will find Anne of Green Gables lavishly illustrated.”
–Smithsonian Magazine
L.M. Montgomery
Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, and raised by her grandparents in nearby Cavendish. The Island’s landscapes, books, and her vivid imagination inspired a lifetime of storytelling.
Educated at Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, she taught school before caring for her grandmother in Cavendish from 1898 to 1911. During this time, she published poems and stories in Canadian and American magazines.
Her first novel, Anne of Green Gables, became an immediate success, followed by seven Anne novels as well as beloved classics including Emily of New Moon and Pat of Silver Bush.
L. M. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942. Her early years on lush green Prince Edward Island live on in the delightful adventures of the impetuous redhead, whose stories Mark Twain called “the sweetest creation of child life yet written.”
