Lucy Maud Montgomery’s bestseller, “Anne of Green Gables,” began as a short story and expanded into a novel. Having difficulty getting it published, she became discouraged and hid the manuscript. Some years later, she tried publishing it again. This time she was successful and in 1908, “Anne of Green Gables” was published and became an instant hit. It has remained a bestseller for 85 years. It is the source for Canada’s most popular family musical of the same name and has been seen by more than one million people. Maud wet on to write 23 books, and all but one are set on Price Edward Island, the Land of Anne.
