Anne of Ingleside

Anne’s motherhood and strength of character is at its best, as she brings up five children, deals with their emotional growing up turmoil, and tolerates a sarcastic Aunt Maria, who has overstayed a visit. As the seasons change from-spring, summer, autumn, winter-the children Jem, Walter, Shirley, Di, Nan and Rilla, deal with their problems, conflicts, adventures, and grow older and wiser.

Jem works hard to earn so he can buy his mother a pearl necklace. Walter walks through a wintery night when he thinks his mother is dying. Diana gets over her obsession of trusting her friends and deals with their betrayal. While Nan copes with finding out the truth about her identity. Anne worries that Gilbert does not love her anymore and fights to win him over.
