Remembering Lucy Maud Montgomery
Remembering Lucy Maud Montgomery | Alexandra Heilbron
2 posts
Lucy Maud Montgomery, Canadas most beloved author, not only gave the world the classic novel Anne of Green Gables, but she was also a devoted ministers wife, mother, neighbour, and friend to many, who in turn were honoured to have know this great lady. In Remembering Lucy Maud Montgomery, the writer is remembered through first-hand reminiscences of the people who knew her. Her Sunday school students, neighbours, maids, family, and friends paint a portrait of Montgomery as she has never before been seen. Not only does this book uncover fascinating sides of the author and provide fresh anecdotes, but it includes many photographs that are published for the first time. Even Montgomerys most devoted fans will find stories to surprise, delight, and at times even shock them.

I just saw that today is L.M. Montgomery's birthday! She was born on November 30th, 1874. I found this sweet picture of her at age 8. It's a bit like how I imagine Emily Byrd Starr. 💜 And how fun to discover it's her birthday as I'm making plans for starting the #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead #KindredSpiritsChristmas tomorrow!

“I am simply a ‘book drunkard.‘ Books have the same irresistible temptation for me that liquor has for its devotee. I cannot withstand them.”
—L.M. Montgomery

Not sure where this LMM quote is from, but I love it, and it‘s a perfect way to say “Happy Birthday, L.M. Montgomery!”‘here on Litsy. 🎉📚🎂🥳
