Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are in for a big surprise. They’re waiting for an orphan boy to help with the work at Green Gables, but a skinny red-haired girl turns up instead. Feisty and full of spirit, Anne Shirley charms her way into the Cuthbert’s affection with her vivid imagination and constant chatter. It’s not long before Anne finds herself in trouble, but soon it’s impossible to imagine life without her.
