Anne of the Island (Avonlea, No. 4) - Softcover

Back cover:
ANNE OF THE ISLAND
People the world over have read and been charmed by ANNE OF THE ISLAND. In the third in the immensely popular series of ANNE books, the once little girl of Green Gables is entering her eighteenth year. Life is full of surprise, adventure and new impressions as Anne enrols [sic] at college. She must face unfamiliar surroundings and strange faces, but before long she is building new friendships and finding romance.

The creator of ANNE, Lucy Maud Montgomery, has brought her own sensitive nature and rich experience to life through her heroine. Like Anne, she grew up in a lovely town near the sea - the town of Cavendish, one of they beauty spots in Canada's picturesque Prince Edward Island.

ANNE OF THE ISLAND, like ANNE OF AVONLEA and ANNE OF GREEN GABLES - also available in paperback from The Ryerson Press - is now regarded as one of the classics of Canadian literature. "It has been well worthwhile to watch the growing up of Anne - she should have a permanent fictional place of high yet tender esteem." New York Herald
