Emily of New Moon

by L. M. Montgomery is a good book. It is similar to the Anne of Green Gables books in several aspects. I read it on the recommendation of a friend and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Emily Byrd Starr has never known what it is like to be lonely until her father dies. She doesn't think that living with two aunts at New Moon will be much fun, but once she makes friends it's not so bad after all.

Anne of Green Gables

by L. M. Montgomery is the first book in the "Anne of Green Gables" series. Laugh and cry with Anne as you read about her mischevous escapades, and her dissapointments. There are some times in the book when you want to laugh and cry, such as when Anne let her friend, Diana, have three glasses of wine, thinking that it was rasberry cordial.
