Summary: Lovely
Comment: I am reading this set myself because I bought it for my 8 year old daughter & thought it might be a wee bit early to start it. So being a girl at heart I have got into the series and have just fallen in love with Anne Shirley and her adventeres! It is funny, sad, inspiring & lovely.

Summary: Good for all ages
Comment: It had been many years since I read the first two books. I recently took the books off my shelves and reread them and realized that even as an adult, past the "youg adult" stage of life, these are wonderful stories. I was amazed to see the copyright date and see that it was 100 years since Lucy Maud first wrote them. Anne girl has withstood the test of time. When I realized there were more books in the series, I checked here and found the anniversary package. The price was more then great and I loved these stories also. Anne Shirley will always be a "kindred spirit" to me.

Summary: Childhood Favorite that Continues to Charm
Comment: I can't think of a better set of books to give to a daughter, niece, granddaughter, etc. When I first read Anne, I was a little too young for some of the vocabulary, but I got through it, and really loved the books. They shaped my reading tastes and my imagination. Anne is funny and charming as a character, and Montgomery skillfully shows how she matures and becomes just as endearing as a woman. I could identify with Anne's flights of imagination and romance. Themes include family bonds, love, and passionate pursuit of learning. These are great universal themes that still ring true today. Montgomery also adds the occasional bit of satire of the prevalent denominations in Canada at the time. I enjoy these novels still because there is that more adult level at which they can be read, while still leaving out anything questionable for children. I can't wait to read these books to my daughter.

Summary: still super after all these years
Comment: Even though Anne lived long ago and far away, she still speaks to us today. She becomes real as we live through her happy times and sad times. She does not always make the right decision and sometimes I want to say to her "What are you thinking?" If she needs a good cry, she goes ahead and has a good cry. Her moods are very understandable. Yet her optimism carries her through any situation.
