I recently re-read this book as an adult after loving it as a child. It is even more wonderful and comforting than I remember it being. We could all take a lesson or two from Anne in seeing the beauty in the world around us, and in letting our imaginations do their thing. 
This is a book that I was genuinely sad to finish. I may need to go to the library and check out the next one, because although I closed the book 24 hours ago, my heart has not yet left Avonlea.
