Synopsis

Schoolyard rivalries. Baking disasters. Puffed sleeves. Explore the violet vales and glorious green of Avonlea in this spirited graphic novel adaptation.

The spirit of Anne is alive and well in Mariah Marsden's crisp adaptation, and it's a thrill to watch as the beloved orphan rushes headlong through Brenna Thummler's heavenly landscapes. Together Marsden and Thummler conjure all the magic and beauty of Green Gables. Like Anne herself, you won't want to leave.
 — Brian Selznick, author/illustrator of “The Invention of Hugo Cabret” and “The Marvels”

The magic of L.M. Montgomery’s treasured classic is reimagined in a whimsically-illustrated graphic novel adaptation perfect for newcomers and kindred spirits alike.

When Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert decide to adopt an orphan who can help manage their family farm, they have no idea what delightful trouble awaits them. With flame-red hair and an unstoppable imagination, 11-year-old Anne Shirley takes Green Gables by storm.

Anne’s misadventures bring a little romance to the lives of everyone she meets: her bosom friend, Diana Barry; the town gossip, Mrs. Lynde; and that infuriating tease, Gilbert Blythe. From triumphs and thrills to the depths of despair, Anne turns each everyday moment into something extraordinary.

Oh Anne, how I’ve missed you! This graphic novel adaptation, of a story that is so near and dear to my heart, was beyond brilliant and beautiful. The artwork, done by the talented Brenna Thummler, swept me off my feet and placed me gently on the grasses of Green Gables. I couldn’t have loved the art......more

Goodreads review by Dave on June 28, 2018

6/28/18: Reread this for my summer 2018 Graphic Novels with focus on girls and liked it even more. The authors sort of adapt from more than one of the series in order to create an arc in which Anne goes from 12-18 years old, conveying the "coming of age" years. There's three main stories and some an......more
