Under the Piano
An autistic child growing up in the 1940's and 50's with a mother who is
bitter because her fear of success has denied to herself a
possible career in opera. This anger translates into an
over-protectiveness of her mentally ill daughter, even
into the child's adulthood. But a loving sister, herself
having an arm that is paralyzed, is a bastion against
the limitations imposed by the mother and finally helps
her sister to live a more full life.

Anne of Green Gables
At the turn of the century on Prince Edward Island, Matthew Cuthbert and his
sister Marilla decide to take on an orphan boy as help for their farm. But they
get an unexpected jolt when they're mistakenly sent a girl instead: Anne
Shirley. Anne's a dreamer with an unusual point of view, far removed from
Marilla's pragmatic ways, and it's only on trial that Marilla agrees to keep
Anne...if Anne can keep out of trouble, only Anne has a positive genius for it.
As Anne falls into a series of scrapes (and off a roof), makes a bosom friend,
searches (and finds) several kindred spirits, Matthew and Marilla discover that
their lives have become a great deal richer, now that Anne is at Green Gables.

Anne of Green Gables - The Sequel
Anne Shirley, now a schoolteacher, has begun writing stories and collecting
rejection slips. She makes the acquaintance of a handsome, rich, bachelor,
chases a cow, and wins (to her chagrin) a baking soda company's writing
contest. She acts as Diana's maid of honor, and refuses Gilbert Blythe's
marriage proposal; which sends her to teach Kingsport Ladies' College, an
exclusive girls school, where she meets opposition from one of the teachers,
Miss Brooke, and the Pringle clan (one of whom is the rich, handsome bachelor).
But while Anne enjoys the battle, and the friends she makes, she returns to
Avonlea.

is persuaded to join her fiance, Gilbert, in New York City as he begins his

both face the disillusioning realities of their professions which makes them
decide to return to Avonlea. However any chance of lasting happiness is dashed
when Gilbert decides to bow to social pressure and enlist to serve in The Great
War in Europe. Anne stays behind and becomes a published writer, but learns

to venture to Europe herself to find him. In doing so, she begins an adventure
that would challenge her wits and imagination to the limit.
