HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.

Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are expecting a young orphan boy to help them with farm work at Green Gables. But when a skinny, red-haired girl turns up instead, immediately certain she's home, they get much more than they bargained for.

Spirited, adventurous, and imaginative, Anne Shirley quickly charms her way into the hearts of the Cuthberts, the entire town of Avonlea and, over 100 years later, the hearts of generations of readers.
