Product Details

Product Description

From Library Journal

This 1917 volume is the latest of the publisher's inexpensive hardcover editions of Montgomery's adventures of Anne Shirley, which began with Anne of Green Gables.
Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.


From School Library Journal

Grade 6 Up–L. M. Montgomery fans will be delighted by Barbara Caruso's narration of the fifth volume in the series (Indy, 2001). It follows the red-headed heroine and her new husband, Dr. Gilbert Blythe, to the snug little cottage that is their first home at Four Winds Harbor on Prince Edward Island. There's laughter, heartache, and unexpected turnabouts with new friends such as lighthouse keeper Captain Jim, and neighbors, Cornelia and Leslie. There's sorrow after the death of the couple's first child, and happiness after their healthy son is born. The story is liberally peppered with sketches of other memorable islanders and views of family life around the turn of the 20th century. Caruso's spirited and versatile narration brings to life diverse character traits such as Anne's zest for life, Cornelia's crusty opinions, and Leslie's soft, sometimes fearful breathlessness. This story will be appreciated by anyone who likes their happy-ending stories wrapped in old fashioned values. A great choice for all school and public libraries.–Barbara Wysocki, Cora J. Belden Library, Rocky Hill, CT

3.0 out of 5 stars I guess it was ok, Mar 15 2006
By Kim (Good ol' California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anne's House Of Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)
The stories of the other characters were captivating... but I'd like the story more if it focused on Anne and Gilbert in Avonlea, and less on other characters. I also wish Gilbert was more interesting. He's kind of lost a lot of his intrigue, and he seems a lot more plain than I thought him to be.

This book just doesn't seem as great as the previous ones. It's a lot more tragic, with less subplots, and its story is heavier.I feel like all the other books were building on to a fluffy romance where Anne and Gilbert would finally be together, but they would still charm each other and be a lot more romantic.
And now it's a story where they're happy and their relationship is done developing, so they just bend into the lives of others.

Aw well, it's not my book and I can't change things around, so that's that.

5.0 out of 5 stars I adore this book!, Dec 23 2003
By "only_the_best_books" (DANUBE, MINNESOTA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anne Of Green Gables Annes House Of Dreams (Paperback)
It is, in my opinion, the second best Anne book! Its Anne's wedding! The whole thing is soaked in romance! Leslie's story is so amazing and sweet that you have to love her. Captain Jim is so sweet and perfect, you can nearly see him. Miss Cornelia is funny and Susan is great. Anne has to deal with tragedy and joy that makes the books so wonderful. The only thing I don't like, is that i wish Marrilla and all the Avonlea people would be in it a little more. In my opinion, this should be where the series ends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, Dec 27 2002
By Kelly (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anne's House of Dreams (School & Library Binding)
If you like Anne of Green Gables in any way, you have to read the other books in order to see her grow up. She stills continue to get in trouble, romance with Gilbert continues, just about anything that can happen, happens. These books fulfill everything that you could ever want out of a book.
