She has a job as the town's schoolteacher, and as the school year passes, wonderful adventures await: reuniting two long-lost lovers, raising two orphans who tumble into her life, and discovering the first flickering of love for a dear old friend. Today L.M. Montgomery's tales of Anne Shirley are beloved classics, with generations of fans everywhere.
