Summary

Emily Climbs: A Journey of Ambition, Friendship, and Forbidden Dreams

Emily never imagined Aunt Elizabeth would allow her to go to high school in Shrewsbury, and she’s thrilled, especially as her close friends Ilse, Teddy and Perry will be there.

About The Author

L.M. Montgomery

L. M. Montgomery was born in 1874 on Prince Edward Island, Canada, where she spent her childhood living with her grandparents in an old farmhouse. A prolific writer, she published many short stories, poems and novels, many of which were inspired by the years she spent on the beautiful Prince Edward Island. Anne of Green Gables and its sequels have always been amongst the most popular of children’s classics, yet many readers consider the Emily trilogy to be better, and indeed, Emily was the author’s own favourite character. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried on her beloved island.
