Lovely...Lucy M. Montgomery always has great stories. Some of the readers are harder to listen to, though.

great series of short stories


(5 stars)

Have only one more book to go in these short stories of L M Montgomery and I enjoyed all of her works starting with Anne of Green Gables. Her works are very touching and uplifting. She writes in a era that was much different than today. A time that was better in many ways but not so great in others ways for people not of wealth. Readers are all great and overall I found these very nice easy listening. Thanks to all for a great job & to LibriVox for making it possible.
