About this listen

Read the sequel to the timeless classic about the beloved Anne Shirley, a red-haired orphan with a fiery spirit, behind the hit Netflix series Anne with an E—now celebrating a hundred years of this children’s favorite.

At sixteen Anne is grown up. . . almost. In the years since she arrived at Green Gables as a freckle-faced orphan, she has earned the love of the people of Avonlea and a reputation for getting into scrapes. Anne is no longer the young girl she used to be, but as a teen, her fierce-temper and boundless passion remain steadfast.

But when Anne begins her job as the new schoolteacher, the real test of her character begins. Anne must learn to be a compassionate teacher while managing her group of mischievous students and acting as a guide to two new rambunctious orphans at Green Gables. As Anne befriends new and old faces alike, she will find herself making unexpected connections—and meddling in the love life of others. But most surprisingly of all, Anne finds that she may even have a romance of her own with a handsome old friend.

Discover why generations of readers have fallen in love with Anne Shirley and the timeless beauty of Avonlea in this cherished classic.

This special Collector’s Edition includes the original, unabridged text, a specially commissioned biography of L.M. Montgomery, and a map of Prince Edward Island.©1989 David and Ruth MacDonald and Bantam Audio Publishing; (P)1989 Bantam Audio Publishing, A Division of Random House, Inc.

Beautifully read by Megan Followes with some variation for characterisation and lots of empathy and imagination.

I loved Megan Follows as Anne. But her narration is a little too fast for me. Thankfully the Audible app allows me to slow it down but this distorts her voice and it still sounds rushed. The loud music that appears at various times is intrusive and unnecessary, and it makes the narration difficult to hear.
