Book Guide

Lucy Maud Montgomery's classic Anne of Green Gables introduced the charming and memorable Anne Shirley and immortalized scenic Prince Edward Island at the turn of the century.

Now, in this lavishly illustrated volume, you can enter the world of Green Gables. Learn how to prepare an Anne tea party (complete with easy recipes for tea-time treats) and how to transform your own garden into one just like Anne's. Re-create handicrafts from the Anne books—sachets, pressed flowers, button necklaces, pinafores and Anne's famous flowered hat. And, discover Anne's day-to-day adventures as she attended school, whiled away her leisure time and explored Green Gables itself (now a tourist attraction that draws thousands of visitors each year.) A short biography of Anne's creator, Lucy Maud Montgomery, is included with synopses of all the Anne books. Sprinkled throughout the text are quotes from the Anne books set against more than 150 full-colour reproductions of original paintings and sketches, all thoroughly researched and authenticated. Even the page borders were adapted from wallpaper of the period.

For everyone who has read and loved the Anne books, The Anne of Green Gables Treasury recreates Anne's world and brings a beloved time and place to life.
