First book in a trilogy by the author of Anne of Green Gables. In typical L.M. Montgomery fashion, this book has a heroine who is orphaned when her father dies, after which she moves to New Moon farm to stay with family. The trilogy includes all of her adventures. Great for pre-teen or early teen female readers.

First in the Series: In this sensitive, heart-warming story we meet Emily Starr for the very first time. Spirited, irrepressible Emily, left an orphan when her father dies, finds she is really not alone. An unexpected world of family and friends is waiting for her at New Moon Farm.

I love this book. It speaks of nature,human and otherwise so realistically that it leaves you wanting more. A tale of a young orphan taken in by cold relatives and blossoming with her own propulsion to write and live. Amazing. The characters are real,likeable and finely drawn. A joy to read this first installment of the trilogy. I cannot wait to read the other two.

If you liked the "Anne of Green Gables" series, you'll enjoy this series, too.

(From back cover) In this sensitive, heart-warming story we meet Emily Starr for the very first time. Spirited, irrepressible Emily, left an orphen when her father dies, finds she is really not alone. an unexpected world of family and friends is waiting for her at New Moon Farm. There Cousin Jimmy encourages her emerging talent for writing, stern Aunt Elizabeth teaches her a surprising lesson in growing up, and Emily's own special way of understanding solves a mystery that gives a lonely man the chance to love again.

The trilogy of novels that share with us the adventures, dreams, and loves of Emily Starr of New Moon Farm will delight readers of all ages. Just as the author's classic "Anne of Green Gabels" series added to the joy of generations, so L.M. Montgomery's Emily books promise another unforgettable reading experience.
