This book is clearly very well researched, giving Anne's background leading up to the beginning of "Anne of Green Gable".
Suffering the devastating loss of parents at a tender age of 3 months, Anne is shuffled from one foster home to the next, ill-used and barely allow to escape, even to attend school. Finally even the foster homes are no longer & she finds herself in what seem to her most deadful destination, the Hopewell Orphanage. Through it all Anne bears her lot in life cheerfully, with the sort of curiosity and imagination we have all come to expect of her.
This book gives a realistic view of how Anne have grown up and how she became the girl who met Matthew Cuthbert on the train platform.
