Anne of Green Gables, My Daughter, and Me by Lorilee Craker
A charming and heartwarming true story for anyone who has ever longed for a place to belong."Anne of Green Gables," My Daughter, and Meis a witty romp through the classic novel; a visit to the magical shores of Prince Edward Island; and a poignant personal tale of love, faith, and loss.And it all started with a simple question: "What's an orphan?" The words from her adopted daughter, Phoebe, during a bedtime reading of Anne of Green Gablesstopped Lorilee Craker in her tracks. How could Lorilee, who grew up not knowing her own birth parents, answer Phoebe's question when she had wrestled all her life with feelingorphaned--and learned too well that not every story has a happy ending?So Lorilee set off on a quest to find answers in the pages of the very book that started it all, determined to discover--and teach her daughter--what home, family, and belonging really mean. If you loved the poignancy of Orphan Trainand the humor of Mennonite in a Little Black Dress, you will be captivated by "Anne of Green Gables," My Daughter, and Me. It's a beautiful memoir that deftly braids three lost girls' stories together, speaks straight to the heart of the orphan in us all, and shows us the way home at last.Lorilee Craker is the author of eleven books, including Through the Storm with Lynne Spears, which was a New York Times best seller, and A is for Atticus: Baby Names from Great Novels, which was a New York Times best seller. Lorilee moonlights as an entertainment and features writer for the Grand Rapids Press in Grand Rapids, MI, and has written for magazines such as Parents and Parent and Child when she isn't chauffeuring her three children to hockey, gymnastics, and everywhere in between.
