I couldn't stop reading L.M. Montgomery until I made my way through all of the series, stand alone novels, and short story collections. I am the proud older sister that owns them all. I only hope I either have a daughter or convince one of my sons to love Anne in the future.Laura's Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13904763940307902364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-77925016087441317952008-07-27T11:08:00.000-05:002008-07-27T11:08:00.000-05:00Hello 64th., I am new here and I read your comment...Hello 64th., I am new here and I read your comment on the ''Anne of Green Gables Audio Books.

Anne of Green Gables as read by Megan Follows! I have the set on cassette and listen to them often. I do not like any other version of AofGG as a book on tape.

There are still some out there I haven't read yet (a few Emilys and Janes and The Blue Castle, Among the Shadows,another Story Girl book etc.) It's wonderful that she not only wrote beautifully but was so productive.Framedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13703547279309902320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-7398176568116054282008-06-02T20:29:00.000-05:002008-06-02T20:29:00.000-05:00I loved the movies!

I can't recall it all now, but I remember being very fond of her writing.Kim Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15024112944002002232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-76235743818254528182008-06-02T17:11:00.000-05:002008-06-02T17:11:00.000-05:00Yes, yes, yes!!

I agree with you about the fab Megan Follows/Colleen Dewhurst version, but I was originally introduced to Anne by a fine BBC production in the 1970s. Sadly, it's not available anymore, and it's not as good as the PBS one.<BR/>I love that Anne is so wonderfully spacy and imperfect, and has such a nose for mischief and trouble. And, of course, her imagination is just lovely. She was definitely my role model and, yes, I did feel like a kindred spirit. For one thing, I drove the Marillas in my life nuts (Mrs. D. in my book was definitely inspired by one of them, an old teacher of mine...)Annette Lainghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00621859944708955098noreply@blogger.com
