About this listen

Anne of Avonlea by Lucy Maud Montgomery covers the mid-teenage years of Anne Shirley. She is the new schoolteacher of Avonlea, and Anne meets many new people and gets into several fun mishaps. From accidentally selling her neighbor's cow to painting the town hall a bright, startling blue, the adventures never stop.

Anne must rise above her troublesome new neighbor Mr. Harrison, and at the same time she must raise a set of twins that are dumped on her doorstep. These twins, Dora and Davy, are a delightful pair, but Davy tends to cause trouble and chaos wherever he goes. When she is not rounding up the twins or arguing with her neighbor, Anne is at the schoolhouse teaching many children, including a young American boy, Paul Irving. Filled with an imagination that reminds Anne of herself as a child, Anne is delighted by having Paul as a student. However, Paul's future is uncertain as his father is away in the United States working.

Miss Lavender Lewis, a woman who has been engaged to Paul's father for over two decades but never married, is also in town. Anne joins the Avonlea Village Improvement Society (AVIS) to improve her social status and to help the town. The work of AVIS has mixed results, and Anne struggles to balance her busy young life. Anne of Avonlea is filled with humor, drama, and a little bit of everything else, making this book a must-listen!

Distracting narration; excellent book

The narrator made Anne sound like Moaning Myrtle from Harry Potter—whiny and very childish. She also mispronounced so many words (e.g., “sewing” was pronounced “suing”). The story, of course, is excellent. I recommend enjoying it in another version.

Voice and accent

I’m pretty good at understand people with thick accents...but man... it was hard to catch this one. But then the voices she did for the characters... it sounded like she was making fun of them! Picture Moaning Myrtle from the Harry Potter movies.

Awkward narration

I really wanted to listen to this book but I couldn’t get past the narration. The voices for the characters were annoying and the accent just didn’t fit.

Terrible voice

I should have read the reviews.
I listened to Rachel Mc Adams read Anne if Green gables and loved it. I bought this thinking it would be similar but it’s terrible

English is not the narrators first language.

I like the story very much but the narration was distracting. Her voice for Anne was childish and sounded like she was mocking her. And English is not the narrators first language so words were mispronounced and the rhythm of sentences very odd.
