Summary

Anne of the Island is the third book in the Anne of Green Gables series, written by Lucy Maud Montgomery about Anne Shirley.
Anne of the Island was published in 1915, seven years after the bestselling Anne of Green Gables. In the continuing story of Anne Shirley, Anne attends Redmond College in Kingsport, where she is studying for her BA.

The title of the book reflects the development of Anne. While studying away from Prince Edward Island and in particular when visiting the place of her birth, she finds herself identifying the Island as her true home. Several times, she denies being a 'Blue Nose', as those born in Nova Scotia were nicknamed, considering herself an Islander to the core.

The musical Anne & Gilbert drew from this book in the second act - Anne and Gilbert also draws from Anne of Avonlea.
The telefilm Anne of Green Gables - The Sequel starring Megan Follows was largely inspired by this book and Anne of Avonlea.
Anne of the Island is a very nice book. There is a super romance in that anyone will dream for having and it’s just let u feel that u belong to their world- you do live somewhere in Avonlea.

    The classic short story - To Build a Fire - by American author Jack London, is brought to life in ways he probably never imagined when it was published in 1908. The subtle blending of narration and music create a vivid image of the “Man” and his “Wolf Dog” as they set out on foot along the Yukon in temperatures colder than –50 F. With plans to meet his friends at a logging camp by 6:00pm, the Man finds himself pitted in a life and death struggle with nature. Whether or not you’ve read this great American classic, you’ll be riveted by this audio version with sound enhancements of the Man’s harrowing adventure in the Gold Rush Era of Alaska.Public Domain (P)2012 Brook Forest Voices
