Anne Arrives
Anne Arrives: Inspired by Anne of Green Gables | Kallie George
8 posts | 10 read | 1 to read
The charming first book in a new early-reader series, starring the spirited -- and outspoken -- Anne Shirley as she first arrives at Green Gables. Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert need help on their farm, so they've adopted what they hope will be a sturdy, helpful boy. Instead, Matthew finds Anne awaiting him at the train station -- imaginative, brash, redheaded Anne-with-an-e. With her place at the Cuthberts' at risk -- particularly if nosy neighbor Mrs. Lynde has anything to say about it -- Anne will have to learn patience, understanding and what it takes to make Green Gables her true home. Lovingly adapted by Kallie George with beautiful, nostalgic illustrations by Abigail Halpin, Anne Arrives is perfect for new fans of Anne and old.

An early chapter book with beautiful illustrations that doesn‘t miss some of Anne‘s best words. Recommended.

Wow! Just discovered this adaptation of Anne of Green Gables. Love the illustrations! They speak volumes! This should help young readers discover the delightfulness of Anne without struggling with length.

A lovely early chapter book that stays faithful to the feel of Anne, while successfully adapting it for younger readers. The illustrations add to the charm.

I mean - look at those #endpapers!!!

5 ☆ A fun Penguin First Reader, it covers the first chapter of Anne of Green Gables. Granddaughter is six years old + had very little trouble reading this to me, says she likes it and has already read several times! With it‘s beautiful vintage illustrations and easy phonics it‘s a great introduction for younger children into the world of Anne of Green Gables. We‘re looking forward to the second book “Anne‘s Kindred Spirits” releasing May 17, 2019.

5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Normally I hate abridged adaptations of classic children‘s book (Don‘t get me started on Great Illustrated Classics), but this one has thawed my heart. The original book has been divided into sections, and the that section made into an early chapter book with great illustrations. It works. The abridger managed to keep Anne‘s heart, Marilla‘s sternness, and Mathew‘s gentleness. It goes from Anne arriving to the apology to Mrs. Lynde.

The illustrations are cute, but I would much rather read the original. Nevertheless, this is a good way to introduce Anne to younger readers. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
