ABOUT

Read the timeless classic about the fiery orphan Anne Shirley, now off to college, behind the hit Netflix series Anne with an E—now celebrating a hundred years of this children’s favorite.

A new adventure awaits as Anne Shirley packs her bags, says goodbye to childhood, and heads off to Redmond College. With memories of her beloved Avonlea close to her heart, Anne dives into life in the bustling city of Kingsport. Surrounded by new and old friends, she embraces this exciting chapter.

From navigating tricky romances and celebrating her first successes as a writer, to facing the tough lessons of growing up and dealing with quirky cottages and their ornery black cats, Anne is determined to live life to the fullest—and on her own terms. But maybe she hasn’t left all of her past behind, especially when the charming Gilbert Blythe seems to have plans for her heart. Now, older and a bit wiser, Anne must decide if she’s ready for love and everything that comes with it.

This special Collector’s Edition includes the original, unabridged text, a specially commissioned biography of L.M. Montgomery, and a map of Prince Edward Island.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
