Reviews

"This is the sixth book following the adventures of Anne. Ingleside is a busy and contented place, home for Anne, Gilbert and their six children. But then Gilbert's maiden aunt comes to stay and for a while the peace is sadly strained." [1] Spoiler warning: Gilbert Blythe is the acquaintance and eventual husband of Anne Shirley in Lucy Maud Montgomerys Anne of Green Gables series of novels. ...


"Anne, now a joyful wife and mother, returns to visit the fishing village of Avonlea in this portrayal of family life on picturesque Prince Edward Island." [2]


Summary

The story starts nine years after where "Anne's House of Dreams" left us, when Anne is making a visit to Avonlea. When she returns home to the old Morgan house, now named '"Ingleside", we are introduced to her children : James Matthew 'Jem', the eldest, now aged eight, Walter , who is almost seven and a bit of a 'sissy', Anne 'Nan' and Diana 'Di' the twins, who are four and nothing alike, Nan having brown hair and eyes like her father and Di having red hair and green eyes like her mother, and finally Shirley, two years old and Susan's favorite, as she took care of him as an infant while Anne was sick. The book, like the other ones is a series of short stories, including the coming of Gilbert's matron aunt, Mary Maria Blythe, the birth of Anne's sixth child Bertha Marilla Blythe, or the roly-poly baby 'Rilla' and also a series of adventures which spotlight one of Anne's children at a time, and eventually Anne herself. At the end of the book, Anne feels that Gilbert doesn't love her anymore and takes her for granted, and makes a most disagreeable visit to the (now widowed) Christine Stuart's house. At the end she is proven wrong and Gilbert tells her they will be going to Europe for a medical congress.
