Anne of Green Gables

By: L. M. Montgomery

Narrated by: Megan Follows

This abridged audiobook edition of the timeless classic is narrated by Megan Follows, who starred as Anne Shirley in the 1985 television miniseries Anne of Green Gables.

Eleven-year-old Anne Shirley has never known a real home. Since her parents' deaths, she's bounced around to foster homes and orphanages. When she is sent by mistake to live with Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert at the snug white farmhouse called Green Gables, she wants to stay forever. But Anne is not the sturdy boy Matthew and Marilla were expecting.

She's a mischievous, talkative redheaded girl with a fierce temper, who tumbles into one scrape after another. Anne is not like anybody else, the Cuthberts agree; she is special, a girl with an enormous imagination. All she's ever wanted is to belong somewhere. And the longer she stays at Green Gables, the harder it is for anyone to imagine life without her.

"[Anne is] the dearest and most lovable child in fiction since the immortal Alice."—Mark Twain©1987 David and Ruth MacDonald and Bantam Audio Publishing; (P)1987 Random House, Inc., Bantam Doubleday Dell Audio Publishing, A Division of Random House, Inc.

narrator is anne. megan follows is wonderful reader. i really enjoyed listening to her read.

My most favorite book for over 20 years.

I truly adore this book series. I listen to the series at least twice a year. Megan Follows reading makes it all the more special.

Missing full chapters

Truly well read by Megan Follows however there are several chapters missing the full story.

Terrible audio quality

Same as others have said. It's a shame it's abridged, that wasn't well done. And the ripped--from-cassette sound quality is dreadful, though Ms. Follows is always good.

a true Canadian treasure

our Anne - Megan Fellows is the only Anne for me on television or through her narrations - she is our Anne!
