Every so often, a character comes along who is so vibrant and remarkable that she seems to leap right off of the page and take on a life of her own. Anne—spelled with an E, mind you!—first delighted readers in 1908. Since then, movies, TV shows, and plays have all been made about Anne, and her popularity shows no sign of fading. This Core Classics volume presents a shortened version of the novel with background information and helpful notes.
