Synopsis

Anne of Green Gables is a wholesome, funny story about imaginative orphan Anne Shirley, who is mistakenly sent to live with the practical Marilla and quiet Matthew Cuthbert on Prince Edward Island.

The humor is gentle and good-natured, with no cynicism or coarse jokes, while the story celebrates friendship, kindness, family, and learning from mistakes.
