As the google doodle so helpfully reminds the casual internet surfer, today is the anniversary of Lucy Maud Montgomery's Birthday. For those English speaking readers who never were a small girl and don't know she was the author of "Anne of Green Gables" (That is Anne with and 'e' thank you very much.) It is the story of an orphan girl who grown up under the stern care of and old maid and her brother on Prince Edward Island as the nineteenth century wound to a close. The story (and its seven sequels) has been loved by children for over a century now. It is rare indeed to meet a girl who did not at some level connect with little Anne, whether they met her in one of the many, many reprints of the books or one of the many film versions. For this author the works of Montgomery were a major influence in both story telling style and voice. Remember it is Cyber Monday! A perfect day for book buying.
