Rainbow Valley (Anne of Green Gables series Book 7)

L.M. Montgomery is one of the best writers of all time. I love going back to her books, always so wholesome and family oriented. O love being able to read these books with my almost 12 year old daughter...

Such a cute book filled with all the adventures of Anne Blythe's children. Story after story of fun-filled afternoons in rainbow valley; definitely would recommend this to any child(or adult that loves Anne) that is looking for an entertaining read!

Very good continuation to the story, albeit somewhat racist in places, and in fact more so than the previous books were. Unexpected n-word was very unexpected, let me tell you. I think I would recommend this book and this series to young adults who are aware that sort of racism is not okay anymore, as well as those with an interest in history who like to see how society and culture has changed over the years.

Excellent book and this particular copy was exactly what I was looking for and in excellent condition when it arrived. It is the special edition which has a biography of the author and a map of PEI. I only wish I had bought my entire Anne collection on the store.

Lucy Maud Montgomery's 1910 novel, "Kilmeny of the Orchard", is an unusual romance, set on the author's very own magic island of imagination, Prince Edward Island, Canada. A young college graduate named Eric Marshall takes a temporary job as a substitute teacher in the village of Lindsey. On an evening ramble, he discovers a neglected orchard, and a beautiful woman who plays the violin in a bewitching manner. The young woman, whose name is Kilmeny, has a tragic history and a stunning disability. The two will become friends. Eric will be moved to declare his intentions, but his love will face multiple obstacles: skeptical parents, a reluctant bride, a dangerous rival, and an interfering relative. Eric will have to prove himself worthy of Kilmeny in a dramatic conclusion.

According to Montgomery biographer Elizabeth Waterston, "Kilmeny of the Orchard" is an expanded version of a short story written in 1908. Montgomery was under some pressure to continue to publish following the success of "Anne of Green Gables" and its first sequel, "Anne of Avonlea." Kilmeny is not as well-developed as some of Montgomery's other novels, but it is likely to be enjoyed by her fans.
