She has spent much of her young life moving between orphanages and foster homes. Always yearning for a place where she truly belongs—somewhere she can finally call home.
Her life takes an unexpected turn when she is mistakenly sent to Green Gables, the picturesque farm owned by elderly siblings Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert. The Cuthberts, both unmarried and living in the small rural town of Avonlea, had originally intended to adopt a strong and capable boy to help them manage the daily labor on their farm.
However, due to an administrative mix-up at the orphanage, they receive Anne instead—a lively and red-haired girl with an unbreakable spirit.
Meanwhile, upon her arrival at Green Gables, Anne is immediately enchanted by the beauty of Prince Edward Island. The sense of possibility it offers. Yet, she is also painfully aware of the uncertainty surrounding her fate. Marilla, who is stern and practical by nature, is reluctant to keep her, believing a boy would be far more useful for farm work.
