L. M. Montgomery 

In this first collection of stories following the characters from the "Anne of Green 
Gables" series, we see 12 vignettes into the lives of the other inhabitants of Avon lea. 
The case of Ludovic Speed as mentioned in "Anne of the Island" is finally detailed, 
along with another appearance by Anne Shirley herself in "The Courting of Prissy 
Strong". We meet some old friends and many new ones from "The Island", in stories 
both sweet and poignant. An old lady finds happiness in being a "fairy godmother" to 
a young music teacher; two lovers will not speak for fifteen years, but still love each 
other dearly; a woman-hater is quarantined with a man-hater; and other anecdotes of 
country town life are drawn by the delicate and sure hand of L.M. Montgomery.
