Presenting the Large Print edition of Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery.
Also available from Golding Books is The Essential L. M. Montgomery: Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Avonlea, Anne of the Island, and Anne's House of Dreams with an introduction by Nicholas Tamblyn, and illustrations by Katherine Eglund. This collection is part of Golding Books' Essential Series.
The character of Anne Shirley, first appearing in Anne of Green Gables (1908), has become beloved around the world. She is a character for all seasons—romantic, imaginative, passionate, and sensitive, and therefore she is kind, loving, and creative at heart.
She gains considerable knowledge over the years and, through that knowledge, becomes a teacher and a kind-hearted protector of others. As inescapable as the struggles and doubts of life can be, she chooses to be courageous in the face of daunting odds—this is why Anne Shirley will always be one of the most affectionately admired of literary companions.
A feel-good novel (or collection of them along with other stories) in the truest sense, Anne's adventures are not merely young adult fiction or children's classics or girls fiction (as some of the marketability or book design might suggest), and their popularity around the world and with people of different ages shares the truth of this. Anne is a strong female lead with a truly soft side, and her coming of age story (particularly in Anne of Green Gables, but further in Anne of Avonlea and the others) will appeal to the better nature of all readers, young and old. L. M. Montgomery's classics of Canadian fiction and North American literature present a strong female protagonist, but the feminist message of the story speaks to common human experience and a meaningful and powerful humanist literature.
Unique among vital large print books for children (including large print childrens books for visually impaired readers) and large print inspirational books for readers of all ages, Anne of Green Gables large print edition in paperback is an unforgettable and moving addition to every library (see other Lucy Maud Montgomery large print editions from Golding Books).
Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton on the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island in 1874. She felt that her lonely childhood and the creation of many imaginary friends developed her artistic expression. Writing as L. M. Montgomery, she published 20 novels and hundreds of short stories and poems, but she is most celebrated as the author of the Prince Edward Island-set Anne of Green Gables (1908) and its numerous sequels (the lead character Anne Shirley appears in a major role in six books and in a lesser role in three other books and two collections of short stories). In 1935, Montgomery was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. She died in Toronto in 1942.
