Winter Quote from Anne of Green Gables

"She had a good sleep that night and and awakened in the morning to find herself and the world transformed. It had snowed softly and thickly all through the hours of darkness and the beautiful whiteness, glittering in the frosty sunshine, looked like a mantle of charity cast over all the mistakes and humiliations of the past."





A photo of one of my LMM early editions of "The Story Girl".  
 This book is in better shape than other early editions that I own by LM Montgomery
There is an inscription on the inside frontispiece that reads:
"Josephine from Lula - Christmas 1926"

Just think, Maud was still living during the year of that Christmastime....
It's a shame that beloved books have to get yellow and faded...
