1 post | 1 to read
Lucy Maud Montgomery, OBE (November 30, 1874 - April 24, 1942), published as L.M. Montgomery, was a Canadian author best known for a series of novels beginning in 1908 with Anne of Green Gables. The book was an immediate success. The central character, Anne Shirley, an orphaned girl, made Montgomery famous in her lifetime and gave her an international following. The first novel was followed by a series of sequels with Anne as the central character. Montgomery went on to publish 20 novels as well as 530 short stories, 500 poems, and 30 essays. Most of the novels were set in Prince Edward Island, and locations within Canada's smallest province became a literary landmark and popular tourist site-namely Green Gables farm, the genesis of Prince Edward Island National Park. She was made an officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1935. Montgomery's work, diaries and letters have been read and studied by scholars and readers worldwide.

What is the happiest Christmas morning you can remember?

This was another lovely story about giving to others on Christmas. So many of these stories have the same exact themes—in today‘s story, noticing someone who is lonely or less-fortunate and bringing them Christmas joy—but I LIKE those themes!

lauraisntwilder The happiest Christmas morning I can remember was when my son was 3 and he got the talking Vanellope (from Wreck-It Ralph) doll he'd asked for. I made pancakes and made small ones for the doll and he thought it was to coolest thing ever. ❤️ This was a sweet story. I liked that the "needy" person wasn't necessarily poor 2d
CogsOfEncouragement Heartwarming, with the hope they can keep up the goodwill all year. 2d

TheAromaofBooks My mom loves Christmas so I have loads of happy Christmas memories. But one of my favorites was a few years ago when the family had planned to get together 12/26 instead of 12/25, so a rare Christmas where the husband and I were going to be home alone for the holiday - and it SNOWED, like several inches of snow, which never happens here on Christmas and was supposed to be rain but instead it was just so perfect and fluffy!!! 2d
BarbaraJean One of my favorite Christmases was when I was living in South Africa & didn't return to the US at Christmas. My roommate & I invited two friends for a Christmas Eve sleepover—we decorated Christmas cookies by candlelight because of a power out. Then we had what we called “Magnificent & Wondrous Christmas Breakfast“! @lauraisntwilder Aw, I love the idea of little pancakes for the doll!! @TheAromaofBooks An unexpected white Christmas—what a delight! 24h
TheAromaofBooks Your favorite Christmas sounds exactly like one of LMM's stories! 😂 13h
BarbaraJean @TheAromaofBooks 😂 More than you know… we took a bunch of Christmas gifts to our friends out in the township later that day! And the cat would NOT come down from the huge tree in front of the house… another Christmas mishap 😂 There were no sleigh rides or sledding, however 😁 (edited) 5h
