If you are a lover of all things Anne of Green Gables and Avonlea, run to the nearest bookshop for this glorious prequel! Marilla and Matthew are growing up on the island with their parents, Hugh and Clara.  Faithful readers of Anne's story will enjoy McCoy's story of life on the island, the little school, Aunt Izzy's visit to help care for the family during Clara's pregnancy and its aftermath, and the blossoming of Marilla into the woman she becomes. This new story answers some of the questions left unanswered in the Anne stories. All the sites are there with gorgeous descriptions and the novel makes a wonderful armchair vacation.
