Chronicles of Avonlea

Lucy Maud Montgomery
Fiction, Children's

L.M. Montgomery's stories are all about finding happiness. These, of course, are no exception, and include stories such as an old lady, poor but proud, discovering love in the shape of the daughter of a man she once loved, two people who haven't spoken in fifteen years finally making up, and a man-hater and a woman-hater finding out that they're perfect for one another. There's no real surprises in this kind of compilation, but that's not what these books are for. If you like Montgomery's writing, these little stories are perfect for quick reads.
