Anne of the Island

As Amethysta said, Megan Follows is an amazing performer/reader in this delightful third book in the irrepressible and irresistible Anne series. Though this edition happens to be abridged, it is truly incredible; it's no wonder Megan won the Award for best actress for Anne of Green Gables! Anne is now growing up and facing decisions and obstacles in her life that she hadn't expected to find, but with the poise and grace that only Anne carries she succeeds and her honest innocence remains true to the end.

Megan Follows brings life to the abridged classic.

I love reading Anne of the Island, but, it was sad that most of the parts which I loved were cut short or entirely missed in this version. So, instead, I was glad that Megan Follows was reading this book or I am not sure I would have enjoyed it. It made me imagine so much about what the Sequel Anne movie could have been.

A Delight

A lovely tale of kinder, gentler times. So very soul soothing and uplifting, just what's needed in the dark days of the summer of 2020.

Loved hearing this read by Megan Followes!

I'm a big Anne fan from way back and it was even better to hear it read by Megan Followes. I think she does an amazing job reading Davy's voice and all the others in this book as well. Although I do prefer Unabridged books on the whole, this one is great! I've listened to this one many times and it's I turn to when I want to be comforted!
