Summary of plot

Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are unmarried middle-aged brothers and sisters. They live together in Green Gables, a farm in Avonley, Prince Edward Island. They decide to adopt a boy from an orphanage in Nova Scotia as a helper on their farm. After a series of misfortunes, the person who finally came to their house was a precocious 1 1 year-old girl named Anne Shirley. Anne is clever and eager to please others, but she is not satisfied with her name. Her pale face is dotted with freckles and red hair with pigtails. However, as an imaginative child, Anne gained a lot of fun in life and adapted quickly, thriving in the environment of Prince Edward Island. She was a chatterbox, which upset Marilla, who was serious and conscientious, although the shy Matthew soon fell in love with her.

The rest of the book tells about her continuing education at school, her excellent academic performance, her budding literary ambition and her friendship with Diana Barry (her best friend, Anne affectionately called her "bosom friend"), Jane Andrews, Ruby Gillis and her competition with Gilbert Blyth, who made fun of her red hair and won her hatred, despite his repeated apologies. Anne and Gilbert compete in class. Anne realizes one day that she no longer hates Gilbert, but she won't admit it.

The book also records her misfortune in the quiet old-fashioned Avonley village. These adventures include her games with her friendship group (Diana, Jane and Ruby), her competition with Patty's sisters (Gertie and Josie) and her mistakes at home, such as dyeing her hair green. Anne, together with Gilbert, Ruby, Josie, Jane and several other students, finally went to Queen's College and got a teaching license within one year. In addition, she won the Avery English Award, which enabled her to study for a bachelor's degree at Redmond College.

The book ends with Matthew's death. He died of a heart attack after learning that he and Marilla had lost all their money. Anne gave up the Avery Award and decided to stay at home to help Marilla whose eyesight was failing and teach at the nearest school, Carmody School, to show her love for Marilla and Green Gables. As a gesture of friendship, Gilbert Blyth gave up his teaching position in Avonley Village School and went to work in Baisha School, so that Anne could teach in Avonley Village School and stay in Green Gables for a week. After this behavior, Anne and Gilbert became best friends.
