Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1902 to 1903
Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1902 to 1903 | Lucy Maud Montgomery
2 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
These early works by Lucy Maud Montgomery was originally written in the early 20th century and we are now republishing them with a brand new introductory biography. 'Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1902 to 1903' is a collection of tales that include 'A Sandshore Wooing', 'After Many Days', 'Min', and many more. Lucy Maud Montgomery was born on 30th November 1874, New London, in the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island. Her mother, Clara Woolner (Macneil), died before Lucy reached the age of two and so she was raised by her maternal grandparents in a family of wealthy Scottish immigrants. In 1908 Montgomery produced her first full-length novel, titled 'Anne of Green Gables'. It was an instant success, and following it up with several sequels, Montgomery became a regular on the best-seller list and an international household name. Montgomery died in Toronto on 24th April 1942.

I loved reading about all the little secrets as the Joseph children prepared gifts for each other! (Also, why are children so often described as having “curly heads”?!) In the end, this is yet another sweet story of kindness and sharing at Christmas. 💜🎄

CogsOfEncouragement Another heartwarming story of Providence. My fav line was “Well, this is Christmas with a vengeance.” 2w
julieclair What a lovely story. The love and resourcefulness of the Josephs, and the kindness of the Ralstons. True Christmas spirit all around. ❤️🎄❤️ 2w

BarbaraJean @CogsOfEncouragement Haha, yes! I loved that line!! I was going to use it for the quote, but decided it was a little misleading out of context 😂 @julieclair I love how the story highlights that the homemade gifts the children made for each other were not forgotten and were still appreciated, even alongside the bounty of gifts from the Ralstons!

Mehso-so

Throwback! Here's my review from four years ago: These stories were sort of whimsical. Often they had sad or prideful elements, and the conflicts were always characters clashing with other characters. In the end, though, some happy conclusion was reached, often by one of the characters admitting a mistake on their part and apologizing, which was interesting. I enjoyed these but wasn't necessarily moved by them.

Daisey I read a few collections of her short stories but never enjoyed them as much as the novels. They often seemed very similar to me, and the format didn't allow for the character development I loved when reading the Anne and Emily books. 8y
readinginthedark @Daisey I would agree with that. It feels a little like you're reading the same story with different character names. 8y
