Anne of Green Gables

"I identified with orphans, like Anne of Green Gables, or pioneers, like the characters of Laura Ingalls Wilder, or children who slipped in and out of different worlds and dimensions, like the siblings in “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.”"

"I loved the promise of books that came in whole series, taking up half a library shelf, like Anne of Green Gables or Swallows and Amazons."
