Anne of Green Gables

Beschreibung

Ein Mädchen? Das muss ein Irrtum sein! Denn die Cuthberts hatten das Waisenhaus ausdrücklich um einen Jungen gebeten. Aber dann steht ein dünnes Mädchen mit feuerroten Haaren und einem von Sommersprossen übersäten Gesicht vor ihnen. Und innerhalb kürzester Zeit erobert die quirlige Anne ihr Herz. Doch schon bald ziehen dunkle Wolken auf. Warum macht der schreckliche Gilbert aus der Schule Anne das Leben bloß so schwer?
