Summary

Anne is adopted by the Cuthberts even after a great mistake at the orphanage. But the frail red-headed young girl stays, even though not wanted at first. She is raised strictly but lovingly by the Cuthberts whose world is set upside down by her wonderful, creative and sometime crazy and eccentric ways. In the end, she gives them endless joy as she grows into womanhood.

Love this

One of my go-to audibles. Love the narrator and the story itself. My mum had this on cassette when I was a child, so really pleased to find it in the Audible store.

Dated Narration unfortunately

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

The book to read yes but the audio version not in this format. We have read this book as a family and really enjoyed it. Anne became an amazing role model to our daughter (7 years old). The audio version didn't appeal at all due to the really dated narration and she had lost interest within the first 10 minutes.

What other book might you compare Anne of Green Gables to, and why?

Pride and Prejudice? Pippi Longstocking?

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Susan McCarthy?

I am sure Susan Mc Carthy could have done this a lot better herself with better guidance/ intructions.

Could you see Anne of Green Gables being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

I am sure it would work with a little updating.
