"But I learn something from every mistake. The amethyst brooch taught me not to meedle with things that weren't mine. The Haunted Wood taught me not to let my imagination yet out of hand. Dyeing my hair cured me of vanity. And today has saved me from being too romantic. I'm positive you'll see great improvements in me, Marilla. I've learn that it's nice to think dear, pretty thoughts and keep them in one's heart, like treasures." - Anne
My Thoughts:
I have seen the the cartoons, but never read the books so I was excited to read this graphic novel. I definitely plan to read the actual books now because this was so good. You just have to love Anne and how bright, creative and outspoken she is. She has such a pure heart that sometimes things go wrong and she can be stubborn but that makes her character all the more loveable. Amazing artwork in this graphic novel as well.

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