One of 5 special Puffin Classics created in collaboration with the V & A, with exquisite cover designs from their William Morris collection.

New series Anne with an E now streaming on Netflix.

This new hardback edition of the much-loved story of orphan Anne Shirley has been created in partnership with the world-famous V & A Museum and features an exquisite cover design from their original William Morris collection.

Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are in for a big surprise. They are waiting for an orphan boy to help with the work at Green Gables, but a skinny, red-haired girl turns up instead. Feisty and full of spirit, Anne Shirley charms her way into the Cuthberts' affection with her vivid imagination and constant chatter.

It's not long before Anne finds herself in trouble, but soon it becomes impossible for the Cuthberts to imagine life without their Anne – and for the people of Avonlea to recall what it was like before this wildly creative little girl whirled into town.
