Anne of Green Gables (Adaptation)

Oxford Bookworms Library, Stage 2

By: L. M. Montgomery, Tricia Hedge - adaptation

Narrated by: Ishia Bennison

Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew want to adopt an orphan, to help on the farm at Green Gables. They ask for a boy, but they get Anne, who has red hair and freckles, and who talks and talks and talks. They didn’t want a girl, but how can they send a child back, like an unwanted parcel? So Anne stays, and begins a new life in the sleepy, quiet village of Avonlea in Canada.
