Anne sat on the steps, her hands folded in her lap, gazing out into the gentle twilight. She looked as girlish as a mother of many children could, and her beautiful gray-green eyes, looking down the Harbour Road, sparkled with joy and dreams as always. Behind her, curled up in the hammock, lay Rilla Blythe, the youngest of the Ingleside children, a round little creature of six years. She had curly red hair and hazel-brown eyes that were now tightly shut, as they always were when Rilla had fallen asleep. In the meantime, Anne Shirley has become an adult woman and mother of six very lively children. An old mansion in sun-drenched Rainbow Valley houses the family and serves as the backdrop for an unending series of adventures. The Meredith children quickly join Anne's kids when it comes to daring plans, such as rescuing Mary from the orphanage, helping a lonely pastor find happiness, or saving the favorite rooster from the soup pot. The fun continues.
