I first started on the Anne books when AOGG was givin 2 me as a 7'th birthday present...since then (6 years) i have read the books over and over and over (except for rainbow valley and chronicles of avonlea)...its such a wonderful series, all the characters are so finely created, and all of Anne and her childrens experiences are so funny and personal that u just fall in love with the story. Anne is such a unique, creative, impulsive, caring, fascinating character. ANNE OF GREEN GABLES ISNT JUST A BOOK, ITS A FANTASY, A DREAM, AND A DAMN FINE STORY!!!!!
