Description

Emily Climbs tells the story of Emily, who never imagined that Aunt Elizabeth would allow her to attend high school in Shrewsbury. She is thrilled, especially because her close friends Ilse, Teddy, and Perry will be there. However, there are certain conditions: for the entire three years, Emily must board with her hateful Aunt Ruth and promise to stop writing stories. This is unthinkable for Emily, but she desires an education and reluctantly agrees.

With the move from her beloved home at New Moon to Aunt Ruth's house, Emily's world is turned upside down. Not only must she prove herself at school despite rejection and jealousy, but she can no longer count on her friends. Her happy childhood friendships—especially with Teddy and Perry—start to turn into something more complicated and, in a small town, even the slightest hint of gossip can cause a scandal.

About the Author

L. M. Montgomery was born in 1874 on Prince Edward Island, Canada, where she spent her childhood living with her grandparents in an old farmhouse. A prolific writer, she published many short stories, poems and novels, many of which were inspired by the years she spent on the beautiful Prince Edward Island. Anne of Green Gables and its sequels have always been amongst the most popular of children's classics, yet many readers consider the Emily trilogy to be better, and indeed, Emily was the author's own favourite character. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942 and was buried on her beloved island.
