Anne Shirley has left Redmond College behind to begin a new job and a new chapter of her life away from Green Gables. Now she faces a new challenge: the Pringles. They're known as the royal family of Summerside - and they quickly let Anne know she is not the person they had wanted as principal of Summerside High School. But as she settles into the cozy tower room at Windy Poplars, Anne finds she has great allies in the widows Aunt Kate and Aunt Chatty - and in their irrepressible housekeeper, Rebecca Dew. As Anne learns Summerside's strangest secrets, winning the support of the prickly Pringles becomes only the first of her triumphs.

My name is Lucy Maud Montgomery, A Canadian author best known for a collection of novels, essays, short stories, and poetry beginning in 1908 with Anne of Green Gables. She published twenty novels as well as 530 short stories, five hundred poems, and thirty essays.

Some of my books have been made in to television shows and had inspired movie producers

Here with Amazon KDP, we have many books that have been brought back from the early days of the forgotten times.

This is a collection of the books that we used to read as kids.

Our collection is based on the knowledge that has been left by our ancestors, the forgotten knowledge of the people, times, and places.

I hope that you enjoy the readings and the knowledge left from beyond as we take it with us into the future and use it to our best advantage.

Feel free to leave us a review, it helps our algorithms and shows how much you appreciate our efforts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anne Faces Many Challenges with Delight
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2022

After the events of the previous Anne book, Anne of the Island, I chose to move right into the next Anne book without delay. I put in my earbuds and slipped into Tara Ward's narration of Anne, new Redmond B.A., newly affianced, and now preparing to take the principalship and teaching job in seaside city of Summerside.

Anne of Windy Poplars is the fourth installment in the series of closely connected books. I enjoyed the author's choice to tell this one both in epistolary format and narration. Anne is writing to Gilbert who is away at medical school and sharing her impressions of Summerside, the household of Windy Poplars, her neighborhood, her work at Summerside High School, and of course, her personal war with the Pringle Clan.

Where the previous book could get somewhat broody or angsty as Anne wrestled with her feelings, Windy Poplars, brings back the free spirit and Anne's endeavor to live in a new place alone as an adult woman all while missing Gilbert, Avonlea and Green Gables, and trying to find a way to be a success at her job with the Pringles thwarting her every effort. She discovers kindred spirits in her widowed landladies, Rebecca Dew, little, lonely Elizabeth next door living with her cold, autocratic grandmother, and a few surprises at her school. Anne takes the snubs of a fellow teacher, Katherine Brook as a challenge just as she does Jen Pringle and the others of the clan. Like my first encounter, I do wish there had been a way to occasionally get Gilbert's reactions to her newsy letters, but that is a minute niggle.

Tara Ward captures the tone of the time period and characters and especially Anne. She is able to voice the characters so they are distinct and I enjoyed her narration work.

All in all, heartwarming, delightful, and a fun listen.

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2018

As Anne faces her first year teaching in a new town, she makes new friends and a few enemies. As usual she finds beauty and adventures in everyday life, and recounts her trials and triumphs to her fiance Gilbert as he attends medical school. Gentle, old-fashioned stories that are heartwarming and fun for all ages. If you enjoyed the first three books in the "Anne Shirley" series you won't be disappointed!

The Rebecca Review
4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Idea and Interesting Characters But What About Gilbert?
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2022
Verified Purchase
So Montgomery must have had the idea to fill in the gaps of Anne's life with this novel which is a lot of letters Annie writes to Gilbert. I'm reading all the Anne of Green Gables books one after the other and this particular book was not in the set I originally purchased. So lesson learned!

This book has some interesting characters and has memorable moments. What I found odd however was that while Annie is writing Gilbert all these love letters (they are pretty tame), Gilbert is not writing a SINGLE letter back. I found this fairly annoying. Could he not have found a few minutes for his beloved Anne? I guess not he is too busy working through summers and going to college.

This is the book before the wedding and has lots of other characters getting married and eloping.

I would only rate this a 4 because I really wanted to know more about Gilbert and that idea was thwarted. But the cat mentioned in the book is cute so I won't lower it by another star!!! >^..^<

I have read all the Anne books multiple times over the years and every time I find something new about them.
In Windy Poplars, Anne is teaching school away from Avonlea and Gilbert to whom she is finally engaged. There are, in typical Anne fashion, entertaining people and events, broken up by Anne writing letters to Gilbert. No worries, readers are spared the sappy romantic letters Anne can only write when her pen is just right. But just the idea of Anne and Gilbert exchanging their letters is sweet romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Five stars for story, not for binding
Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2013

I am leaving a review about the hardcover binding of this book, since there are so many great reviews of my favorite in the Anne series, Windy Poplars, and because Amazon does not separate the reviews by bindings. I would have LOVED to have read a review about this particular hardcover binding! It is not a traditional hardcover; it is a cheap paperback glued to a cheap hard cover. This does not mean it is not attractive, because it is attractive - at least, more attractive than a plain ol' paperback. It means it will not wear any better than the cheap mass market paperbacks they print up these extended serials as. There are no quality printings of the whole series, and I've LOOKED! I'm not sorry I ordered this copy, despite the fact it was nearly $14, because my mass market paperback copy of Windy Poplars was shot, and I didn't want another of the same. As critical as I am of the cheap binding of the hardcover, I am inwardly hoping that it will hold up a LITTLE longer than the plain ol' paperback, but, time will tell.

5.0 out of 5 stars "As sementes também são flores, basta conhecê-las."
Reviewed in Brazil on August 26, 2020

Quando abri o 4° livro da "biografia" de Anne, decepcionei-me e fiquei estagnada no 3°capítulo do 1°ano. O livro, aparentemente, era enfadonho, pouco parecido com os antecessores e menos interessantes que os posteriores, os quais li antes de terminar Windy Poplars.
Oh, como minha opinião mudou depois que me decidi a dar-lhe uma terceira chance! Agora o estimo tanto quanto os que se seguiram a ele e mais que os que lhe precederam.
Se estranhou a tentativa de Lucy em emplacar o gênero epistolar (nem todos possuem o talento de Austen para transitar bem por gêneros diferentes) e sentiu a ausência dos queridos personagens que a autora se limita a mencionar, dê mais uma chance ao livro! Valerá a pena.

This review is for the entire Anne of Green Gables series. I loved this series as a child. Anne is my all time favorite storybook character. I read the whole series several times as a child and wanted to own hardcover editions of the series to share with my two daughters. I couldn't find nice hardcover editions of the entire series through the U.S. Amazon so decided to try Amazon.ca. I'm glad I did. These books are beautifully made--exactly what I was looking for!

Every bit as good as Anne of Green Gables the stories in the continued stories of Anne's life are the best series I have read. Start with Green Gables and read them all. I feel Iike I have been to Prince Edward Island and Canada. No bad language no violence just beautiful stories and this is one of them
