This was a short book with biographical background of L.M.M., and photos of her home interspersed with quotes of what the Island meant to her. Gorgeous. Now I really want to go there!

I picked this up thinking that it was going to be all about my favorite author and her favorite place. And while it was full of pictures of current day PEI narrated by Montgomery's own writings, I expected a lot more content. One thing I really liked was the way Montgomery's descriptions of places in real-life PEI matched up almost exactly to her descriptions of places in her books. I got to see the actual Lake of Shining Waters, Lover's Lane, and The White Lady, among others. Obviously this is only a book for the L.M. Montgomery obsessed, but since it was so short, I don't really have anything else to say about it.
