Anne had the gift to be able to see the "good side" of people and even become "a kindred spirit" to the least likely candidates. For instance, at the beginning of the story she soon wins over crusty-hearted (but tender on the inside) Marilla Cuthbert, who first wants to give her back to the orphanage because she isn't a boy. Another character "hard to get" is Rachael Lynde, but Anne even manages to do this in the end. Today we would say that...

When precocious Anne moves to the out-of-the-way village of Avonlea, her active nature, quick temper, and intellect often cause the people who live there to misunderstand and misjudge her. Mrs. Rachel Lynde is one of the biggest critics little Anne has. She is the nosy neighbor who is looking constantly out of her window so she can remain up to date on all the latest news in the neighborhood. Mrs. Lynde is the neighbor whose home is...

Only you can answer this question. I can tell you what insights into myself and other people that I gained from reading the book, but that wouldn't help you. Your teacher wants to know your opinion of the book, your thoughts about people in the time of the novel and now. You might start by comparing your lifestyle and education to Anne's.

You could draw several themes from the story, but one could be that life's best gifts are often not the things we plan or expect but come as complete surprises. This was certainly true of Anne, who was the best thing that ever happened to her adoptive family, so set on having a boy. You could formulate another theme around the gender issue, but this is not necessarily the crux of the story. Anne's imagination, her generosity of spirit, her...

Marilla is Matthew's sister. She takes Anne in when Matthew dies. She is nothing like her brother. Where he is kind and understanding, Marilla uses every moment she can to teach a lesson to Anne in morals or etiquette. She is considered an "old maid" and had no experience in raising children. Where Matthew showed pride in Anne, Marilla does just the opposite. She shows no pride in her and never shows any type of...
