- Emily of New Moon
Spirited orphan Emily Starr must adjust to her new life on New Moon Farm in this beloved children’s classic by the author of Anne of Green Gables. Set in turn-of-the-century Canada, Emily of New Moon is the coming-of-age story of an imaginative young orphan named Emily Byrd Starr. Ever since her mother died when she was four, Emily has been raised by her loving father. But when Douglas Starr dies of tuberculosis, ten-year-old Emily is sent to live with her maiden aunts, Elizabeth and Laura Murray, and their cousin Jimmy at New Moon Farm on Prince Edward Island, where she suffers loneliness unlike anything she’s ever felt before. Despite conflicts with her strict aunt Elizabeth, Emily finds solace in writing and in nature, and eventually makes friends with hot-tempered tomboy Ilse Burnley, artist Teddy Kent, and a hired boy on the farm, Perry Miller. But will she ever come to love New Moon Farm and call it home? Lucy Maud Montgomery would follow Emily’s story in two subsequent novels, Emily Climbs and Emily’s Quest. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
- Emily Climbs
Second in the trilogy about an orphan girl with big dreams from the beloved author of Anne of Green Gables and featured in Netflix’s Russian Doll.

She loves to read the dictionary and frequently records all of her problems and worries in her journal—much more fun than knitting stockings. Fortunately, Emily has made some friends but they’re heading off to high school in Shrewsbury. Emily’s aunt Elizabeth allows her to go on the condition that she stop writing. With the help of her cousin, Emily manages to strike a deal. Once in Shrewsbury, Emily embarks on her climb toward success with her friends—Ilse, Teddy, and Perry—by her side. Everything begins to go so well. Emily starts writing stories and poems—she even writes for the town newspaper. Soon sparks begin to fly between her and Teddy. But when a fantastic opportunity come her way, Emily is forced to make a decision that will alter the course of her life forever . .
