Following my reading of the saga of our girl from Avonlea, reread Anne of the Island and Anne of Windy Poplars .
In Anne, Island, is already a young lady who still maintains his wonderful soul dreamer. This is the book where we will mature, where it becomes a young woman who takes his first steps in love, you are wrong and learn from their mistakes.
The simplicity of the story makes it ideal to be read by many young people as adults, but the reflections it leaves us, in passing, it may go unnoticed in young minds.
"And it was richer in dreams than in reality, because what you see, pass, more unseen is eternal"
This simple sentence, written late in the first chapter, reminds me of what is said Fox Prince by Saint-Exupéry, "It looks good but with the heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye" .
A reflection on the ephemeral certain things and sustainability of the important ones.
"And then I discovered that if there is nothing more charming than the solitude with dreams, there's nothing worse than loneliness without them"
What would we do without being able to dream? The power to imagine with the eyes open and plan what we want for our future but our imagination is not as active as that of Ms. Shirley.
In Anne of Windy Poplars , our young heroine faces his first serious work and away from home. Committed to Gilbert, who studied medicine, will be away for three years, maintaining his love correspondence.
Many of the chapters of the book are the letters that Anne wrote her fiance.
Perhaps one of the books more "boring" (if this girl's life can be boring), it introduces many new characters and see a few old ones, to which they are a bit strange.
is a transitional book, divided into the three years that Anne acts as principal at Summerside High School, home to the tower of Windy Poplars. In it, I found a sentence which I identified totally with Anne.
"I hate to lend a book I love (I never seem the same when I return it )..." Hate
lend my books dear! I do not know if I feel different, but I have a panic that I did not return. Normally, only lend books that I liked. So you know, if I pay a book is probably not very good.
I close the entry with the reflection that makes Franklin Wescott (one of the new characters), on the way to win a race using cunning.
, "Always remember," he said solemnly, "there are more than one way to skin a cat. It can be done so that the animal never know who has lost the leather."
