Anne of Avonlea
Book 2 of the Anne of Green Gables series
At sixteen, Anne Shirley becomes the teacher at Avonlea school while remaining at Green Gables to help Marilla and care for twins Davy and Dora. Her plans for improving the village bring her into the Avonlea Village Improvement Society, where good intentions produce both useful changes and comic disasters. New neighbors, demanding pupils, and the friendship of Gilbert Blythe deepen Anne's understanding of responsibility without diminishing her imagination. Bright with Prince Edward Island seasons, this gentle sequel is a lovely spring read for anyone who enjoys community life, youthful ambition, domestic mishaps, and a heroine learning to make home larger for others.
