This week I continued reading the Anne of Green Gables. I wanted to go back to the beginning of the
series however even though I was in the middle of the third book and re-read
the first book. Anne of Green Gables was
the original book that truly drew me into the series. I was so excited when I found out that there
were other books in the series. A lot of
other books in the series! When Anne
first comes to the Island she is so full of wonder. Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert are the older
brother and sister who are adopting Anne, however they don’t know yet that Anne
is coming to them. They originally
wanted to adopt a boy so that Matthew could have some help around the farm as
he was getting older and starting to have some health issues.
Anne was so excited to finally be some place where she had a
home only to find out that she was unwanted because she was a girl. Matthew however really liked Anne and
eventually got Marilla to give in and keep her in a few days. At first life was a little bit difficult for
Anne and Marilla to get used to. Anne
was clumsy, and a bit prone to day dreaming.
She had many kitchen mishaps especially at first things such as
forgetting to do the dishes, dripping greasy water on the floor, and even
forgetting to put key ingredients in recipes.
Marilla had to have a lot of patience with her and it was quite the
adjustment for her. Even though Marilla
had a hard time showing Anne love she did love her deep down inside.
