Emily of New Moon
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Read by Leanne Fortune
Emily Starr never knew what it was to be lonely -- until her beloved father died. Now Emily's an orphan, and her mother's snobbish relatives are taking her to live with them at New Moon Farm. She's sure she won't be happy Emily deals with stiff, stern Aunt Elizabeth and her malicious classmates by holding her head high and using her quick wit. Things begin to change when she makes friends: with Teddy, who does marvelous drawings; with Perry, who's sailed all over the world with his father yet has never been to school; and above all, with Use, a tomboy with a blazing temper. Amazingly, Emily finds New Moon beautiful and fascinating. With new friends and adventures, Emily might someday think of herself as Emily of New Moon.

The Book was just phenomenal, though the reader was hard to hear at times and her S's quite sharp at times, she did an amazing job and we really enjoyed how she took her time and really made every creator come to life. highly recommend if you don't mind a little whistle in the words every once and a while.š
brilliant, gentle narration

I wasn’t sure about the accent at first, but very quickly got into the book and characters because it was so excellently read. I actually think the accent added to it in the end. There was some disturbing themes relating to animals which I found difficult, but I guess that was the times sadly. Would love to listen to more books read by this reader. Thank you.
One of my favorites!

This is one of my favorite LibriVox books. The reader does an excellent job, it’s a pleasure to listen to her! The Emily of New Moon books are among my favorites of Lucy Maud Montgomery, second to Anne of Green Gables series. I also enjoy The Story Girl by L.M.M.
