THIS IS NOT ANNE OF GREEN GABLES!, August 6, 2010
This review is from: Anne of Green Gables (All Aboard Reading) (Paperback)
Look on the cover. It says "Adapted by". This is not Lucy Maud Montgomery's book, and it is not even well-written. The story has been ripped off and re-written for younger readers.
Anne of Green Gables is a children's classic, and would be enjoyed by girls with a reading level of 5th grade and above. Girls aged 5 - 12 would love the stories. It is best to wait until you can read the actual version, though, for the value of the literature and the humor in the author's brilliant pen. Purchase an unabridged edition instead of this adapted version.

Review of Anne of Green Gables, February 6, 2007
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Anne of Green Gables (All Aboard Reading) (Paperback)
In Anne of Green Gables, L.M. Montgomery's exciting story, Anne wants to be adopted by a famly who loves her. This imaginative, eleven year old, red-headed orphan girl changes Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert's lives forever.
Matthew and Marilla had wanted an orphan boy to help on the farm in Canada, but the orphanage sent Anne instead. Anne is spunky, adventurous, talkative, and fun to be around. She enjoys reading and using her imagination. Her best friend, Diana,and she have many exciting and funny adventures together. Anne does not like to do what she is told to do, but she'll do almost anything people dare her to do. Will Matthew and Marilla keep this lively young girl?
In my opinion I recommend this book to girls of ages 11 and older or for anyone that enjoys stories about adventurous girls. This book is definitely worth reading. Jonathan Cox

A great choice for a classic read on Kindle!, May 3, 2011
This classic illustrated edition of «Anne of Green Gables» is a joy to re-read and would make any Kindle reader who wants an 'older edition' type of book to read. I hope more of the old classics are available in this format.
