Anne of Green Gables, Chapters Three to Five

In which it is Marilla's turn to be surprised, Anne discovers that she is not a boy, Matthew states an opinion, and Marilla learns of Anne's past.



And now we get to the first of the illustrations in the book, portraying Anne's first meeting with Marilla, and capturing one of the many, many moments this book will contain where I will attempt to not giggle when reading the word "ejaculated."

Matthew and Anne stand in the kitchen before a rather judgemental Marilla
0:52 - "Matthew Cuthbert, who's that?" Marilla does not beat around the bush.

If you would like to read along, the text can be found at Project Gutenberg. No reading ahead, though!
