A deluxe gift edition of the beloved Canadian classic with foiled covers, marbled endpapers, sprayed edges, and a silk ribbon bookmark.
Imaginative, irrepressible, and always getting into scrapes, no one quite knows what to make of the red-haired orphan Anne when she arrives in Avonlea to live at Green Gables. But before long, she has charmed the whole town with her irresistible spirit and gift of storytelling. Anne loves the beauty of Prince Edward Island, her best friend Diana, and dresses with puff sleeves. But she loathes being an orphan, having red hair, and being called “carrots” by Gilbert Blythe.
From its initial publication in 1908, the story of Anne Shirley has won the hearts of generations of young readers around the world and it continues to delight readers today.
This hardback is part of DK CLASSICS, a luxurious series of classic titles, thoughtfully crafted for collectors and fans of beautiful special editions.
