At sixteen, Anne is grown up...almost. Her gray eyes shine like evening stars, but her red hair is still as peppery as her temper. In the years since she arrived at Green Gables as a freckle-faced orphan, she has earned the love of the people of Avonlea and a reputation for getting into scrapes. But when Anne begins her job as the new schoolteacher, the real test of her character begins.

Story
Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert of Green Gables had no intention of adopting the talkative, mischievous, red-headed girl the orphanage in Nova Scotia sent by mistake. What they wanted was a sturdy, sensible boy to help with the chores. Instead, they got 11-year-old Anne Shirley, whose capacity for adventure was only matched by her bright spirit and love of life. Still, there was something about the little girl that gave them second thoughts. She was keen of wit with a scintillating effervescence that was purely captivating. Just perhaps....

File is MASSIVE - can’t download
This is literally the only place I can find to contact audible. The books are a single file for 55 hours of listening. There isn’t enough storage on my phone. It should be in parts to avoid this. Don’t buy unless you’ve got lots of free storage. This must be why it was cheap. AVOID

A classic must read
It's a good story and it's not too poorly read. Unfortunately this version doesn't include the two books written in the 1930's. Final chapter ends abruptly and without a pause another voice ends the recording. Scared the stuffings out of me, so heads up.

Consistent, entertaining, and endearing
I think Kesler is a good reader for this book series. I admit her voice takes a little getting used to but after a while I got to appreciate how Kesler voices Anne and the others with enough distinction and nuance. There may be better readers out there but I think Kesler does a good job and most importantly provides consistency for the book series. While I really like the voice she gives for Anne, I feel that the voice she gives for little Davy Keith in Anne of Avonlea is just perfect and hilarious. Give this recording a good honest try and I think you'll come to appreciate it as I have.

Never too old for this collection
I honestly would’ve given all five stars but for one thing. The voice/character given to Susan was so annoying it really hampered my enjoyment of these classic books. I feel a little petty even speaking of it, but I’m certain it’s not just me. My sisters feel the same. She becomes a main character halfway through the third book and it’s not easy. One of my sisters just gave up and stopped listening completely. We’re all 40+ years old and LOVE this series. It’s truly a favorite for us all. That’s really the only thing that I could criticize. Otherwise it’s wonderful.

Endearing
The series is well done. I would have given it 5 stars but the character, Susan Baker, in the last book, Rilla of Ingleside, became rather annoying at times with her rants and "I" this and "I" that. I probably would have liked her better if the rants weren't so long and so often. At times I felt like the author was just trying to meet a page quota so used her rants and speeches as filler.
