When she was asked to contribute a short story to a magazine, she dusted off an idea for a plot she had jotted down when she was much younger, and turned it into Anne of Green Gables, one of the most popular books ever written. Lucy said about the book: I thought girls in their teens might like it. But grandparents, school and college boys, old pioneers in the Australian bush, girls in India, missionaries in China, monks in remote monasteries, premiers of Great Britain, and red-headed people all over the world have written to me, telling me how they loved Anne and her successors. Lucy married a Presbyterian minister in 1911 and moved with him to Toronto. She continued to set her stories on the only island there is and where her heart always remained.

Fru Rachel Lynde bodde alldeles dar stora landsvagen till Avonlea svangde ned i en liten dalsanka, kantad av alar och ormbunkar och genomfluten av en back, som hade sin kalla lngt inne i skogen p andra sidan den gamla Cuthbertska grden. Den pstods vara en ganska nyckfull och yster back under sitt forsta lopp genom dessa skogar, med morka hemligheter av tjarnar och porlande fall mellan stenblocken. Men nar den hann fram till Lyndes sanka, var den ett lugnt och sedesamt litet vattendrag, ty inte ens en back kunde passera forbi fru Rachel Lyndes dorr utan tillborlig hansyn till anstandigheten och det passande.Den hade formodligen reda p, att fru Rachel satt i sitt fonster och holl ett vaksamt oga p allting, som kom forbi, frn och med backar och barnungar, och att, om hon markte ngonting besynnerligt eller oriktigt, hon aldrig skulle ge sig ngon levande ro, forran hon uppsprat grunden och orsaken.

En lng, smart flicka i sjuttonrsldern, med allvarliga gr ogon och ett hr, som hennes vanner kallade kastanjebrunt, hade slagit sig ned p den roda sandstentrappan utanfor en lantlig stuga p Prins Edvards o en harlig solskenseftermiddag i augusti. Hon hade foresatt sig att oversatta femtio rader i Virgilius.Men denna augustieftermiddag, d bl tockenslojor lgo som lattaste flor over de boljande sadesfalten, skalmska vindflaktar tisslade och tasslade i popplarna och vallmorna glodde i grannaste rott inne i furudungen langst borta i tradgrden, lampade sig vida battre for svarmiska drommerier an for latinska studier. Virgilius gled snart obemarkt ned p marken; Anne stodde hakan mot sina hopknappta hander, riktade blicken mot den glansande massa ulliga moln, som likt ett stort vitt berg tornade upp sig rakt over herr Harrisons hus, och befann sig snart lngt borta i en fortjusande varld, dar en viss ung och nybakad skollararinna utrattade ett underbart arbete, utformade blivande statsmans oden och fyllde ungdomliga sinnen och hjartan med hogtstravande arelystnad

Skorden ar bargad, och sommarn ar slut, smsjong Anne Shirley och blickade drommande ut over de mejade falten. Hon och Diana Barry hade plockat ned applen i Gronkullas kokstradgrd, men nu sutto de och vilade sig efter sina modor i en solig vr, dit latta tistelfjun kommo flygande, burna av vindflaktar, som annu voro sommarljumma och doftande av ormbunkarna inne i Spokskogen.Men allt hos landskapet omkring dem talade om host. Havet brusade dovt i fjarran, falten lgo kala och fortorkade, strodda har och dar med gullris, dalsankan, dar backen flot forbi Gronkulla, lyste av purpurvioletta astrar, och Morka, speglande vgen var blare an ngonsin. Men det var icke vrens nyckfullt skiftande bl, icke heller sommarens bleka azur, utan en klar, lugn och mattad farg, som om vattnet overvunnit all slags lynnighet och upprordhet och sjunkit han i ett tillstnd av ro, som aldrig mera skulle storas av flyktiga och oberakneliga drommar.
