About this listen

Emily Starr had never known what it was to be lonely - until her beloved father died. In this, the first of the Emily novels, young Emily is orphaned and goes to live with her mother's snobbish relatives at New Moon Farm. Sure that she'll never be happy there, Emily endures her stern Aunt Elizabeth and malicious classmates by holding her head high and using her quick wit.

But things begin to change as Emily makes several new friends. There is Teddy, who does marvelous drawings; Perry, who has sailed all over the world with his father and has never been to school; and Ilse, a tomboy with a blazing temper. Amazingly, Emily finds New Moon Farm beautiful and fascinating. With new friends and adventures, Emily might someday think of herself as Emily of New Moon.

The story was great, filled with mixed emotions and a few surprises. very well read, only a shame she doesn't narrate the other 2 books that follow. Well suited for young and old alike.

Very good book

Being a firm lover of the authors works I may be somewhat biased but this was my first step away from the Anne of. . . series and I must say I was as enchanted by Emily and this ensemble as I am by Anne. A lovely story, well worth a listen. I did find the reader a little stilted at times but this became part of the charm for me I suppose.

Another L.M Montgomery Delight

Of course it is very old fashioned but that is its charm taking us back to a time when people, even children talked about right and wrong. The charm of this adorable trip back in time to another world has given me many happy hours. Every bit as good a story as Anne of Green Gables it is different , and original.

I loved this audio book.

I loved listening to this story. An Evocative , descriptive and immersive work. A book to visit and live in not just read. I think it is a profound and autobiographical work that gives me insight into the author that touches my heart. So enjoyable.

L.M.Montgomery at her best.

Beautifully narrated. I read all the Emily books in my early teens and loved them. This was a great way to revisit them.

As good as I remember it!
