Emily of New MoonEmily of New Moon

A delightful new heroine is introduced in this charming story by the author of Anne of Green Gables. Emily Starr had never known what it was to be lonely -- until her beloved father died. In this, the first of the Emily novels, young Emily is orphaned and goes to live with her mother's snobbish relatives at New Moon Farm. Sure that she'll never be happy there, Emily endures her stern Aunt Elizabeth and malicious classmates by holding her head high and using her quick wit.
